a large juice company that manufactures only apple juice surveyed customers at a local grocery store. five mothers of young children were asked if they give their child apple juice or orange juice. before each survey, the interviewer stated that their apple juice was healthier than orange juice. out of the five mothers surveyed, four of them prefer to give their children apple juice instead of orange juice. which of these conclusions is most likely true? a the survey given to the mothers is a fair, non - biased survey. b the juice company can legitimately use this survey to promote drinking apple juice instead of orange juice. c the survey is much too small to have any real implications for choosing apple juice instead of orange juice. d if 100 mothers are surveyed, exactly 80 of them will recommend giving apple juice to children instead of orange juice.

Answer

# Brief Explanations: The sample size of only five mothers is extremely small. A small - sized sample is not representative enough to draw broad conclusions or make generalizations. Just because 4 out of 5 mothers in this small sample prefer apple juice doesn't mean it's applicable to a larger population. Also, the interviewer's statement about apple juice being healthier may introduce bias. # Answer: C. The survey is much too small to have any real implications for choosing apple juice instead of orange juice.
