which choice is a true statement about drawing inferences from a population? a randomization is not a necessary condition when conducting a survey. b bias in a survey produces the most optimal results. c a sample that is representative of the population produces the most optimal results. d an effective sampling technique contains biases as well as randomization.

Answer

# Answer: C. A sample that is representative of the population produces the most optimal results. # Brief Explanations: A representative sample mirrors population characteristics, enabling accurate inferences. Randomization is crucial for surveys (rejecting A), bias distorts results (rejecting B), and effective sampling minimizes bias (rejecting D).
