Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
The use of statistical modeling and analysis in a census, which involves collecting and interpreting mass data like income, consumption, and population trends, is a fundamental example of the strong relationship between mathematics (specifically statistics) and economics. Econometrics, a branch of statistics, applies these methods to economic theories to validate them and predict economic behavior and trends. While geography also uses mathematical and statistical methods for spatial analysis and population distribution, the term "मानविकी- अर्थशास्त्र" (Humanities- Economics) specifically highlights the direct application of quantitative methods to economic phenomena analyzed through census data.
