Asuperintendent is making the case that she is to improve the school system. as evident for her role in this improvement, she cites an example of a student from a failing school who got a full scholarship to an esteemed university. eighty percent of the students from this particular school do not go on to college, and many do not graduate at all. what is the flaw in the superintendent’s choice of example?

It is not a representative example.

Explanation:

The superintendent used the case of only one student who received a scholarship at an estimated university to represent improvements in the school system, when most students (80% of them) do not even graduate, when most earn scholarships. study. The superintendent example is not a representative example because it represents an isolated case. It would be a representative example if the superintendent could show that 80% of the students won scholarships at universities after the improvements he made in the school system, but this example is not possible.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
