Tom wants to know the average number of musical instruments students in his school play. He used the school’s two band classes, consisting of a total of 48 students, as his representative sample. He concluded that students in his school play an average of three musical instruments. Is his conclusion valid?(1 point)

No, Tom's conclusion is not valid. A sample size of only 48 students from two band classes may not be representative of the entire student population in the school. Additionally, not all students in the school may be in band classes or play musical instruments, so his conclusion may not accurately reflect the average number of musical instruments students play in the school.
