Matilda asked 20 random people in the street if they would like to discuss what they want to do during the summer break. seven of them said yes. how is this sample biased? the people who chose to participate might not be similar to the people who didn’t. she should have asked more people. she should have asked girls only. the number of people who agreed was too small.

Respuesta :

The sample is biased because sample size is too small. So option (1) she should have asked more people is the correct answer.

Sampling bias is a bias in which a sample is collected in such a way that some members of the intended population have a lower or higher sampling probability than others. Sampling bias occurs when some members of a population are systematically more likely to be selected in a sample than others.

For the given situation,

Sample size = 20

Here Matilda have surveyed only 20 people. Since it is a less value, the sample is biased.

We could not take as the population suggestion with the suggestion of only seven people.

To know the population's liking's, Matilda should have asked more people in the street if they would like to discuss what they want to do during the summer break asked more number of people in the population.

Hence we can conclude that the sample is biased because sample size is too small. So option (1) she should have asked more people is the correct answer.
