Answer 2

OptionC or D is correct

Explanation:

Given that A magazine wants to estimate the mean price of a large soda at restaurants in Mankato, Minnesota.

OUt of 4 options given, let us analyse each one by one

I option is wrong since we are concerned about price of a large soda and not prices of large drinks. Hence option 1 is not appropriate

Option 2 is wrong since since we are concerned about price of a large soda and not prices of large drinks. Hence option 2 is not appropriate

Thus option 1 and 2 are wrong because the question is only in restaurants and not in movie theatres

But last 2 options are right since survey was done correctly from restaurants from the relevent places.
