Question

Sam wants to know how many families in his neighborhood plan to attend the neighborhood cookout. He puts all 100 of the neighborhood addresses in a hat and draws a random sample of 25 addresses. He then asks those families if they plan to attend the cookout. He finds that 15% of the families plan to attend the cookout. He claims that 15% of the neighborhood families would be expected to attend the cookout. Is this a valid inference?

Answer 1

Yes, this is a valid inference because he took a random sample of the neighborhood
Yes, this is a valid inference because the 25 families speak for the whole neighborhood
No, this is not a valid inference because he asked only 25 families
No, this is not a valid inference because he did not take a random sample of the neighborhood

I think its a because he took a random sample of the neighborhood although i also think its c because he only asked 25
