Answer:

For example, a survey of high school students to measure teenage use of illegal drugs will be a biased sample because it does not include home-schooled students or dropouts. A sample is also biased if certain members are underrepresented or overrepresented relative to others in the population.

Answer:

A is the answer

Explanation:

It's the biased report because it's only covering one side of the whole story/issue. One side may be extremely against the issue and they'll make sure to say horrible things about the event. Now the other side may be in favor of the event, and they'll only say good things about the event, leaving the bad parts in the shadows.

Dennis_Churaev [7]

This question is missing the information in parenthesis. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

What would be the right choice of pronoun for the sentences below from the choices in the parenthesis? Also what would be the correct antecedent from the choices in parenthesis?

1. Neither of the men has decided which team ________. (he prefers or they prefer) Antecedent (Neither, team, or men)

2. Each of the short story writers has a style of ______ own. (her or their) Antecedent (writer, style, Each)

Answer:

For number 1, the correct choices are "he prefers" (pronoun) and "Neither" (antecedent).

For number 2, the correct choices are "her" (pronoun) and "Each" (antecedent).

Explanation:

In colloquial language, we tend to not pay much attention to this, but when the subject of a sentence is "neither" or "each", we must use singular pronouns to refers to it. Since it is common for those words to be followed by plural nouns, we get easily confused, and end up using plural pronouns.

1. Neither of the men has decided which team... --> Who has decided? Neither. Therefore, "neither" is the antecedent. Since it is singular, we must choose the singular option, "he prefers".

2. Each of the short story writers has a style of... own. --> Who has a style? Each. I know it sounds strange on its own, but "each" is the subject. Since it is singular, we must use "her", the singular pronoun, to complete the sentence.

There have been several accidents in your school recently. The principal ask you to write a report on these accidents. In your r

ddd [48]

Answer:

This report aims to inform about the accidents in our school during the past months along with suggestions on how to avoid them.

A recurrent accident is people slipping on the stairs due to the lack of an anti-slip surface on the steps. The injuries have been minimum, but they could be worse depending on how the student falls, the number of people on the stairs, and the height. To prevent this accident, the school should put an anti-slip surface on the stairs. Also, the steps' edges should be yellow to make them noticeable.

The second most common accident is related to doors. These close too fast and hit students that have their hands occupied to grab them. Also, many students have hurt their fingers because they tried to stop the door from closing. As a result, their fingers got between the door and the frame. A change that the school could do to prevent these accidents is to install a door closer that makes the door move slowly and swiftly.

Another accident that has happened is people falling from their seats since they are broken or have loose screws. Students now check their chairs before using them, which leads to a delay in the class's start since the student has to find a new chair or is thoroughly checking it. The school's staff should check, and replaced the seats.

In conclusion, the accidents in our school have not been fatal, but they still represent a risk for our safety. By doing the suggested changes and repairs, the school would become a much safer place.

Explanation:

In this report, we describe the accidents that took place in our school. In the first paragraph, we introduce the topic. Then, we proceed to write an accident per section, describing them in detail and suggest how to avoid them. Lastly, we make a conclusion where we give a personal opinion regarding the situation in our school.
