Question

Setting:

Answer 1

a. No because he only surveyed those who were leaving and not a whole set.

b. It sounds biased because he uses the word "lengthy" which means long, and sounds opinionated.

c.  54-51 = 3

3 divided by 54 = 0.055

0.055 x 100 = 5.5

Answer 2

A. Mr. Kent interviewed the 54 students as they are going to leave the school, it is not considered to be a random sample. It is because a random sample is when a set is taken from a population. Mr. Kent interviewed the 54 who are going to leave, meaning, he didn't take a set out of that 54, he took all of them. So it is not a random sample.

b. The question that Mr. Kent asked is considered to be a leading question, so it does not seem biased.

c. If there are 54 respondents.
51 = yes, the rest is no.
= 54 - 51 = 3
= 3 is now divided to 54 = 3/54
= giving an answer of 0.0555
= 0.0555 x 100
= 5.6%
= The percent of responses that says 'no' is 5.6%
