Solution :
Do you think fines for speeding should be doubled ?
Obviously , the answer of such questions are usually in yes or no . Anyway , considering the population is normal and would want to save money most of the answers for the survey would be no . Also , please note that all the responders who were ever fined or are regular offenders for speeding would give the answer as no , thereby ingesting a bias in the responses analysis. What if all offenders were selected who are inclined to answer no ? what if all non offenders are selected who are inclined to answer yes ? This would not be meanigful in a comparitive analysis If this were preceeded by the question , have you ever been fined ? This would help us take a balanced approach by taking into account equal numbers of offenders and non offenders and then observing their answers to find out an fundamental relationship. One of the issues could be , individuals are usually reluctant in declaring that they were speed offenders , so it is quite possible that they may not answer the question correctly . They may answer a No when infact they were fined for speeding. This would not help us in making a right analysis , as our premise would go wrong.

Scenario 3: In an attempt to understand the nation's opinion on universal healthcare, investigators sponsored an advertisement during an American mid-moming news radio that asked viewers the following question: "Should everyone have healthcare? Weigh in tonight from 4 to 6pm. If yes, call 1-900-720-6181. fno, call 1-900-720-6182. Charge is 50 cents for the first minute." Consider the population that the investigators are trying to sample, do they obtain a representative sample from this sampling scheme? Specifically, what type of sampling...
