I would say the sample is not random, because they are all playing dodge ball.  Random would be 5 different students all over the place, not playing dodge ball together.

Answer:that would be a biased sample

Step-by-step explanation:a biased sample is not every one of the population is surveyed, and only 5 out of 100 people has been surveyed, and that's our anwser!!!
