Students are yoting on the color of T-shirts to wear on their field trip. There are 160 students-65 boys and 95 girls-going on

the field trip. A random sample of students is chosen. Surveying the random sample produced a representative sample of the

population. Which was most likely true of the representative sample?

The representative sample contained all 160 students.

The representative sample contained more boys than girls.

The representative sample contained more girls than boys.

The representative sample contained an equal number of boys and girls.

the answer would be The representative sample contained an equal number of boys and girls

Sample should have more girls than boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample must be made up of people who represent the way the actual population is made up. The 1948 presidential election was a perfect example of why. New York Governor Thomas Dewey was supposed to be a shew in for the presidency. All the poles said so. The problem was the poles did not represent the make up of the population. It turned out the the poor people of the South did not own phones and they were not represented as well as they should have been.

Truman easily was elected.

So the answer to this question is the sample should contain more girls than boys because that was the makeup of the population.
