Question
A school principal wants to know the average number of extracurricular activities students in her school are involved in. She assigned each student a number from 1 to 415. Using a random number generator, she selected 200 students to be part of the sample. She concluded that students are involved in an average of two extracurricular activities. Is the principal’s conclusion valid?(1 point)

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

It is not valid to generalize the average number of extracurricular activities for the entire school based on a sample of only 200 students. The sample size is too small to accurately represent the entire student population. More students need to be included in the sample for a more accurate and valid conclusion.
