Answer:
Yes. Her sample is unrepresentative of the population in her community.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Population Study Census % Representative Over/Under
Sample Sample Representation
Whites 300 48% 288 (48% * 600) 12
African Americans 80 12% 72 (12% * 600) 8
Latinos 100 18% 108 (18% * 600) (8)
Asians 40 9% 54 (9% * 600) (14)
Others 80 13% 78 (13% * 600) 2
Total 600 100% 600 0
b) There is selection bias in her sample. A representative sample of 600 is the subset of a population that seeks to accurately reflect the characteristics of the larger group. When the sample for each category does not accurately represent the characteristics or attributes of the population categories, then it is unrepresentative.
Sampling is the collection of randomly chosen data from the entire population to come to an end conclusion about the variable to be determined or known.
Yes, the sample is unrepresentative of the entire population.
The reason for the sample being unrepresentative of the entire population in her community is that the selected sample is deviating a lot from the population count.
As per the computation, there is selection bias in her sample. This is because the representative sample is 600 that represents the entire population and reflects the characteristics of the larger group.
The sample becomes unrepresentative when the sample chosen does not accurately represent the true attributes of the population.
