Answer:

A) The greater the variance within the population, the larger the sample should be.

Explanation:

The variance of a sample mean is inversely proportional to the sample size, that is, the larger the sample size the smaller the variability of the sample. When sample size increases, the range decreases and hence the variance decreases resulting in a more accurate research result with minimal experimental error.

Hence the researcher should employ a large sample size to reduce the variation in the population.

VMariaS [17]

Answer: C. are required to put down collateral

Explanation: A secured loan is a loan backed by collateral—financial assets you own, like a home or a car—that can be used as payment to the lender if you don't pay back the loan. Lenders accept collateral against a secured loan to incentivize borrowers to repay the loan on time.

Secured loans are usually easier to get approved for if you have poor credit or no credit history. This is because using your property as collateral lowers risk for the lender.
