The upcoming mayoral election. Evening news viewers were invited to phone in their votes, with the results to be announced on th

e latenight news. Based on the phone calls, the station predicted that Amabo would win the election with 52% of the vote. They were wrong: Amabo lost, getting only 46% of the vote. Do you think the station’s faulty prediction is more likely to be a result of bias or sampling error? Explain.

Answer: Sampling error.

Explanation:

The radio station did not get the actual result for the election because they didnt properly carry out their sampling experiment. This is because the people who called to cast their votes does not represent a greater number of the population who were capable of voting.

The station needed to gather a larger percentage of the voting population for their sample survey in order to get a result that would be closer to the correct value from voting process.

lisabon 2012 [21]
In this situation, the externalities that arise from studying is the unability to enter college and obtain good-paying jobs.

What would a society be like if there were no rules enacted by a body like the legislature?​
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Without any rules and regulation in society there would most likely be anarchy and even greater corruption by the few.

It would be total anarchy.

At first it would be fine. People would get along fine. But then someone gets drunk and kills someone else. Then a third person kills the second person.

Finally, a fourth person would try to stop the fight peacefully, he would die, and then everyone would get angry at the person who killed the fourth guy (I know, it’s confusing, but stay with me), and they would kill him.

People would then realise, after the fact no one got in trouble, that they could do whatever they wanted. Large companies wouldn't Have to abide by any laws, so monopolies would occur.

Because there is no government, there would be no official currency. This means coins would be counterfeited and the economy would crash.

There would be environmental damage as well. Without any laws about game, critically endangered animals would die out, causing the ecosystem to fall apart. Overfishing would kill of entire species of fish.

Finally, only small villages would remain, as cities would be to dangerous because of all the pillaging. Seaside towns would die out as overfishing would destroy their food source. small villages would have their own governments and would survive for a couple more decades until bandits came and looted everyone.

By this point, nuclear power plants will of melted, causing extreme damage to what's left of the ecosystem. Bandits would survive the longest, because they’re nomads they'd pillage until there truly was no food left, and then the human race would die.

Hope this helps and if you could mark me as brainliest. Thanks!
