O Surveying the boys in the freshman class.
O Surveying every other student in the cafeteria.
O Surveying all the students in her math class.
O Surveying 20 students from each grade at random.
O Surveying the students in the chess club.

Answer 1

- Surveying the boys in the freshman class is biased. It doesn’t take a sample from all of the school, it is from only one grade and one gender.

-Surveying every other student in the cafeteria would be biased IF only a certain grade was in there at a certain time. If every student was in the cafeteria at the same time, it would be non biased.

-Students in her math class is biased- it only considers those in a certain class, not everyone.

-20 from each grade at random is NOT biased, it considers every grade and 20 random students.

-Chess club is biased. Only students in one particular group get to answer. Hope this helps!
