Question

Mark just received word that he scored 88% on a trigonometry test. Mark is also in an advanced algebra course. Is Mark's score on his trigonometry test an accurate predictor of how well students in the trigonometry class will perform on the same test? A.No, because Mark is not representative of the population of the trigonometry class B.Yes, because Mark is representative of the population of the trigonometry class C.No, because Mark scored too high on the exam D.Yes, because Mark scored very high on the test, so it must have been an easy exam

Answer 1

First off, it would not be C because there are no guidelines to score too high on a test
Then, D would also be wrong because since he scored high, it doesn't just mean that the test was easy.
Now it comes to the yes or no between A and B, since he is just one of the many students in Trigonometry, it cant be a very accurate representation therefore the answer to the problem would be A
Solution: A. No, because Mark is not representative of the population of the trigonometry class
