The superintendents of two school districts are considering a merger in which the two school districts would become one larger school district. They want to conduct surveys in their districts to determine whether district residents support the merger. For which of the following survey methods could the results be used to accurately determine the level of support among district residents for the merger?

• Call all residents who have school-age children and ask whether or not they support the merger

• Ask residents who attend meetings of the Board of Education whether or not they support the merger

• Randomly call approximately 25% of residents and directly ask whether or not they support the merger

• Provide all residents a form asking whether or not they support the merger and have residents mail in their responses

Which of the following is NOT an accurate statement about statistics?

• In statistics, we use the value of a parameter for a population to make inferences about the value for a random sample of that population.

• In statistics, we use the value of a parameter for a random sample of a population to make inferences about the value for the entire population.

• Statistics allows us to study a random sample of a population without the need to examine the entire population.

• Statistics takes data about a random sample of a population and extrapolates it to the entire population.
