PLEASE HELP ASAP

Tina conducted a survey to find the favorite weekend activity of the people in her state. She asked 10 of her neighbors what their favorite weekend activity is. Tina concludes that boating is the favorite weekend activity of the people in her state because 70% of her neighbors like to go boating on weekends.

Use at least two sentences to explain why Tina's sample may not be valid. Make sure to use facts to support your answer.

Tina’s answer may be inaccurate because she only asked ten of her neighbors, when in reality she wanted the results of her entire state. In order to get accurate results, Tina needs to ask many more people.
