Answer 2

The statements which describe good methods for collecting samples are:

• Go to a local mall and survey people because a variety of people go to the mall.
• Go to a grocery store and survey people because almost everyone shops for groceries.
• Survey people at different times of the day to ensure she reaches people in different schedule.

Also the best way among these would be to survey people at different times of the day since by doing so people exercising at all time span could be recorded.
