Two random samples were taken to determine how often people in a community listen to the local radio station each month.

The first sample surveyed 15 people as they exited the bank on Main Street. The first sample found that the mean number of hours they listened to the radio each month was 20.

The second sample surveyed every sixth person as they exited the only local grocery store until 100 people were surveyed. The second sample found that the mean number of hours they listened to the radio each month was 12.

Which statements are true? Check all that apply.
The second sample is random.
The second sample is likely to be more representative of the population.
The first sample is likely to be more representative of the population.
The second sample will give a better representation because is it larger.
The first sample will give a better representation because it is smaller.
Community members are more likely to listen to the radio station an average of 12 hours a month than 20 hours a month.

Asmall (but heavy) particle placed in a glass of water will follow a zigzag motion because the particle will bounce off of the water molecules it meets. this is called brownian motion. a physicist simulates this on a computer, by varying the distance a particle can travel (called the mean free length), on average, before it collides with a water molecule and assigning the change in motion to be one of 8 directions, each with a similar probability. by running the simulated particle (with the same mean free length) many times she determines that it should take 15 seconds, on average, for the particle to fall to the bottom, with a standard deviation of 1.5 seconds. next she lets a real particle fall through a glass of water and finds that it took 18 seconds. what does she conclude, and why?
