Concept explainers
To find: Which is the best explanation for why the results of this survey might not be valid?
Answer to Problem 21STP
Option B: The survey is biased because the sample consisted of only people who already are interested in townhouses.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
A real estate agent surveys people about their housing preferences at an open house for a luxury townhouse.
The survey of the real estate agent is to gather information about people interested in all kinds of houses which includes those who are attending an open house for a luxury townhouse.
For example, this survey is like conducting a survey on a question “what is your favorite color” in a blue lovers meeting.
