Since the Entire Population Is Too Large to Work With

Multiple Choice

Since the entire population is too large to work with, a sample is often used to characterize the population. This sample should:

A) be at most 5% of the population size to minimize the computational efforts.
B) be randomly selected so that it represents the entire population.
C) include individuals that are selected to fully represent the extreme values in the distribution.
D) be small enough to mitigate against chance events skewing the distribution of the sample.
