Rob sent an email survey to 2,000 cell phone owners asking about their satisfaction with their current plan. Only 256 people returned the survey and they were predominately 18-24 years old.

Which of the following statements is true?


Rob is ignoring the assumption that all survey participants will want to act independently.


The survey likely has bias because the people who could not answer differ from those who did answer.


Rob included too many people on the survey list, affecting the data collected.

Answer:

option B

everyone has different opinions about different things, since we only recorded the survey of a fourth of the total people, the survey will definitely have bias since the people who dont have to answer survey will not be able to record their opinions
