Consider the hypothetical study described below. based solely on the information given, do you have reason to question the results of the study? explain your reasoning. a tv talk show host asks the tv audience, "do you support new national mileage standards forautomobiles? " and asks people to vote by telephone at a toll-free number. is there reason to question the results?

a. no, there is not reason. the goal of the study is clear.

b. yes, there is reason. the tv audience might not be representative of the population.

c. no, there is not reason. there is no bias in the study.

d. yes, there is reason. the wording of the question might produce inaccurate or dishonest responses.

e. yes, there is reason. call-in polls tend to be biased.

f. no, there is not reason. it is unlikely that there are any confounding variables in the study.

B. Yes, there is reason. The TV audience might not be representative of the population.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question "Do you support new national mileage standards forautomobiles?" is asked to the TV audience.

Therefore those who will voted are the ones who are watching the TV show. We do not know the rate of people who do not watch TV or who do not watch that TV talk show in the population.

Thus the results cannot represent the whole population

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24

time to try the rest on your own! if you put the answers below in a comment, i'll check them for you!
