Question

A restaurant chain’s owners are trying to decide if they want to open up a franchise in your town. To help them decide, they conduct a telephone survey of people in your town. One of the survey questions is “Do you prefer Thai food or Chinese food?” Is the question biased? Explain.

Answer 1

I don't believe so. They are asking the right people(people in town).

An example of a biased survey would be if they asked people at a Chinese restaurant. This would be biased because people who eat in a Chinese restaurant are more likely to prefer Chinese food.
