(02.01 MC) A talent show broadcast on television asks viewers to call in to vote for their favorite act. Describe how the design of the survey leads to bias. (4 points) Select one: a. A voluntary response error was made in this design. This type of sampling only targets people with phones to call in and is not a good representation of the population. b. A convenience sample error was made in this design. This type of sampling only targets people with televisions and is not a good representation of the population. c. A voluntary response error was made in this design. This type of sampling only targets those who are passionate about a specific act and call in to vote; it is not a good representation of the population. d. A convenience sample error was made in this design. This type of sampling only targets people with access to that television channel and is not a good representation of the population. Incorrect e. There are no potential areas of bias.

Option D is correct.

A voluntary response error was made in this design. This type of sampling only targets those who are passionate about a specific act and call in to vote; it is not a good representation of the population.

Step-by-step explanation:

When humans are given the choice whether to participate in a survey like in this question, most often than not, the survey becomes biased.

This is because only the people or set of people who feel strongly the most about the subject matter of the poll will participate in the survey. This favours the group that disagrees as this group, if given the choice to express their opinion, will most likely be the set of people that will readily express their discontent.

Discontent is more visibly and strongly expressed in humans.

In order to remove this bias, people should have been chosen at random and their responses recorded.

Hope this Helps!!!

fahrenheit

step-by-step explanation:

fahrenheit is more precise than celsius. the ambient temperature on most of the inhabited world ranges from -20 degrees fahrenheit to 110 degrees fahrenheit—a 130-degree range. on the celsius scale, that range is from -28.8 degrees to 43.3 degrees—a 72.1-degree range. this means that you can get a more exact measurement of the air temperature using fahrenheit because it uses almost twice the scale.

starting with:    

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7   

5 + x - 12 - x = 2x - 7 - x (subtract x from both sides)   

5 - 12 = x - 7 (combine and cancel x's from both sides)   

5 - 12 + 7 = x - 7 + 7 (add 7 to both sides)   

0 = x (add numbers together on both sides)       

so in order for the equation to be true, x must be 0.   

trying x = -0.5   

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)   

5 + -0.5 - 12 = 2(-0.5) - 7 (plug in value of x)   

5 + -0.5 - 12 = -1 - 7 (did multiplication)   

-7.5 = -8 (did addition on both sides)       

since -7.5 is obviously not equal to -8, the value of -0.5 for x is wrong.   

trying x = 0   

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)   

5 + 0 - 12 = 2(0) - 7 (plug in value of x)   

5 + 0 - 12 = 0 - 7 (did multiplication)   

-7 = -7 (did addition on both sides)       

since -7 equals -7, that demonstrates that the value of 0 for x is correct.   

trying x = 1   

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)   

5 + 1 - 12 = 2(1) - 7 (plug in value of x)   

5 + 1 - 12 = 2 - 7 (did multiplication)   

-6 = -5 (did addition on both sides)       

since -6 is obviously not equal to -5, the value of 1 for x is wrong.
