The library design committee wants to know what people in the city think of a library design. Which sample of the population is least likely to show bias in a survey on this issue?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

... Answer choices?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A. every tenth person leaving a city senior center B. random people listed in the city phone book C. parents of children studying in the library D. students leaving a soccer game

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sort of a silly question... Least bias?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know it got me confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

... Can't be B if it's LEAST BIAS...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (_michaeld22):

I'd have to say D. People leaving a soccer game? Their minds would be focused mainly on that instead of going to a library.

Moira went bowling five times during the summer. Her scores were 195, 190, 190, 250, and 240. If she wanted to misrepresent the data to impress people with how well she bowled during the summer which measure would she most likely use? A. range B. mean C. median D. mode

OpenStudy (_michaeld22):

I think that it'd be B, mean. \[190+190+195+250+240=1065.] 1065/5 = 213. It would put her average bowling score as 213, which would definitely misrepresent the data.

If x can be any number, how many solutions are there for the equation? y = 7x – 1 A. There is only one solution because all equations have one solution. B. There is no solution because there are no values for the variables that make the equation true. C. There are many solutions because there are many values for the variables that make the equation true. D. There are two solutions because there are two variables in the equation.

OpenStudy (_michaeld22):

I'm gonna say C. Can't really say why I think that that's the answer, it just feels right. There is no other information, other than what you listed.
