A researcher posts a radio advertisement offering $35 in exchange for participation in a short study. The researcher accepts the first eight people who respond to the advertisement. Which of the following statements is true about the sample? It is a valid sample because the first eight people were selected to participate. It is not a valid sample because it is not a random sample of the population. It is a valid sample because money was offered to participants. It is not a valid sample because it is only a short study. Question 12(Multiple Choice Worth 5 points)

The true sentence about the sample is B. It is not a valid sample because it is not a random sample of the population.

Step-by-step explanation:

The concept of random sample involves that the sample have to be representative and with the minimum bias. If the researcher wants to arrive to a conclusion about the population, eight individuals are not enough and he needs a method to select from his subsample (all individuals who respond the advertisement in a given period of time), individuals that will finally participate .

good luck!

proofs involving isosceles triangles often require special consideration because an isosceles triangle has several distinct properties that do not apply to normal triangles.(more about triangle types) therefore, when you are trying to prove that two triangles are congruent, and one or both triangles, are isosceles you have a few theorems that you can use to make your life easier.

step-by-step explanation:

an isosceles triangle has two congruent sides and two congruent angles. the congruent angles are called the base angles and the other angle is known as the vertex angle. ∠bac and ∠bca are the base angles of the triangle picture on the left. the vertex angle is ∠abc
