A radio talk show host asks listeners to call the radio station and give their opinions on a proposed new city ordinance. He use
s the opinions of 200 callers to conclude that the voters are overwhelmingly opposed to the ordinance. Why is this sample likely to be biased? A. The survey is voluntary and includes only listeners of this radio program. B. There are not enough people in the sample. C. Radio listeners are more likely to be opposed to city ordinances. D. The entire population of the city was not surveyed.
<em />I would say letter A. the survey is voluntary and includes only listeners of the radio program. Since it is a radio program wherein the host first claimed that he will want to know who is against the new city ordinance. Since it is voluntary, then most likely only the ones against it would call since the ones for it do not have any reason to call and voice their opinions. Usually it would be the people that are against who would be feeling strong about their opinions. Therefore, we can say that this is biased.
