A. Susan's survey location makes the results invalid.
B. Susan's survey didn't include all other brands of bottled water.
C. Susan's survey proves that more people preferred Boost bottled water over Energy bottled water.
D. Susan didn't survey enough people.

Answer 5

I hate this type of question because:

Answer 6

B. Susan's survey didn't include all other brands of bottled water.
yes there are many other brands!

D. Susan didn't survey enough people.
Could also be the case, 200 people is a pretty small number comparing to a number of people live there.

My answer: Just the fact that Energy bottled water is better than Boost bottled water, doesn't show that Energy bottled water is the best brand (over all of the brands) in the market.
