Question

PLEASE HELP!!!!

11.) A restaurant chain's owners are trying to decide if they want to open up a franchise in your
town. To help them decide, they want to find out how often people in your town go out to eat. A researcher interviews people leaving a local restaurant. Is there a bias in this sampling
method? Explain.

12. Is there any bias in the following survey question? Explain.

Do you prefer delicious chocolate ice cream or boring vanilla ice cream?

Answer 1

11. The sampling method is biased. This is because the researcher only interviews people coming out of the restaurant instead of people in the restaurant or walking on the street. This would be called convenience sampling.

12. There is bias in the question. The writer prefers chocolate over vanilla by the words used to describe the two flavors.

(Sorry if this was too late for you by the way.)
