10 Students may rush the surveys and not give good data because they
want to fill in as many surveys as they can. It is also possible that this
system works very well.
11 The cost of this survey would be very expensive and it would take a lot of
time to find all the addresses. It may be quicker to drop off flyers. It
would be easy for the football team to make that part of their fitness
training. They could run to every home.
12 Some people are not comfortable sharing their financial details. People
should be given the chance to choose e) private.
13 This kind of survey will have dramatically different responses if it is given
in September, November or June. The time of the year could influence
how people respond.
14 Answered on the page.
17 (AMV): There are so many brands of shoes as well as many types of
shoes (running, hiking, casual, dress shoes....). Naming three brands may
influence people to choose these brands more than other brands. Also,
the three brands are all running shoes, which may lead people to only
consider running shoe brands rather than all types. A sample, question
might be; "What is your favorite brand of running shoes?" Or, "What is
your favorite brand of shoe to wear to school?".
18 (AMV): The question is leading people to say yes by saying "Don't you
think..." This can be easily corrected by changing the question to; 'Do
you think that TV is a waste of time?' Some people will say that "waste of
time" biases people to think about TV in a negative way prior to
answering the question. A better question might be; 'What do you think
of TV?'
a) Important b) Neutral c) Not important
19 (AMV): Answering no to this question would not give clear data. Are they
saying No to ending homeless, no to voting for Polly or both? This
question may be better split into two parts? Are you in favour of ending
homelessness? Do you plan to vote for Polly Tysean at the next election?
20 (AMV): Many people have commitments Sunday mornings like church or
sporting events. These people may support the business but are unable
to support the business on Sunday mornings. This business may want to
have a grand opening on another day.A possible survey question might
be；"Will you be attending our grand opening celebration during the week
of November 30th to December 4th？".

11 Population. A realtor could easily send emails to all clients in 2009. It
would be a sample if not everyone responds.
12 Population. There are usually not more than 100 teachers in a school.
This survey could be completed during a staff meeting.
13 Sample. It would be too time consuming to survey all viewers.
14 Sample → They may choose to check with all the customers during a
specific month.
15 Sample → Post a survey on the city website or in the newspaper. Only
a sample of the population would respond.
16 They both could be right. Grade nine boys could be a sample of the
population if the survey was asking what kind of food should they sell in the
cafeteria. Grade nine boys could be the population if the survey was
questioning who would be trying out for the grade nine boys basketball
team.
17 Ask for help if you need it.

40 The sample size is very small. Perhaps all the people in room 122 are part
of the chess club.
41 This sounds reasonable. In a 9-12 school, 400 kids were surveyed. This
should give a reasonably accurate prediction.
42 Monday between 1−5 is not usually busy time. The service at this time of
week and day may be very different than a Friday or Saturday night.
44 (AWV): Voluntary → Create a comments survey on their website. Anyone
who comes to the website can choose to comment on their fall line up.

want to survey randomly selected people in each province.

a randomly selected group of residents in each area of town.
47 (AWV): Stratified → There are distinct groups who will be impacted by the
lights. Staff, students, parents, community soccer clubs and residents of
who will see the lights at night. Survey a selection of members from each
group.
48 (AWV): Convenience → Survey all customers during the month of April.
Stratified → Survey the first 5 customers every day.
49 (AWV): Haydon's data may be more accurate. The cafeteria attracts a
wider range of people than a boys PE class or a dance class. The Boys PE
class is all boys and the dance class is all girls. Perhaps combining all the
data together and calculating the average might be the best way to do it.
→ 30 % of the school might be interested ¿ and divide that by 3.)
50 This is a cluster survey since all members are surveyed in one subgroup.
It could also be a convenience survey since it may have been most
convenient to survey his first block class. Alternative sample → (AWV)
Stratified. Randomly select 5 students from each class to fill out the
survey.
51 Stratified Survey: since 5 nurses are chosen from each subgroup
(hospital). An alternative method would be a voluntary survey. This way
only those who have ideas for improvement would respond.
