B. To increase the variability to the estimate
C. To reduce the bias of the estimate
D. To increase the bias of the estimate
E. This increase will have no effect because the population size is the same

Answer 1

Answer:

A. To reduce the variability of the estimate

The smaller the sample, the more variability there is.

Bias has to do with how randomly the sample is selected.  Assuming that method doesn't change, the bias doesn't change.

Answer 2
