Incomplete question. The missing options read;
a. Kate surveys every 8th student from a roster of the choir members.
b. Kate surveys the football team.
c. Kate surveys seventh-grade students.
d. Kate surveys every 4th student entering the school.
Answer:
d. Kate surveys every 4th student entering the school.
Explanation:
Interestingly, after careful examination of all the listed sampling methods, none except option d would best produce a representative sample of the population.
This is because;
in the first, second, and third option, none of them evenly represents the entire school population; meaning it fails to produce a representative sample of the population.
However, if Kate surveys every 4th student entering the school, then chances of getting a representative sample of the entire school population are very likely; as different grade level students would likely be entering into the school when the survey activity is taking place.
