Question

Any large random sample from a group of people will be representative of the entire group.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is False.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a random sample each member of the group has the same chances to be selected or chosen. A representative sample resembles the characteristics that we want of the group. Many times we take a random sample according to the need of the data we need to collect.

Hence, It is not certain that any large random sample from a group of people will be representative of the entire group as chances and possibility is there that the representative may be from the left sample of the group and not from the large random sample.

So, the given statement is False.

Answer 2

The correct answer is:
False.

Explanation:
While we do want large random samples to try to ensure representation, we must also be aware of potential bias in our sampling methods. Bias can cause a sample, even a large one, to not be representative of the entire population.
