Pete is conducting a survey to determine his customers’ overall satisfaction about the quality of his company’s products. he sends out surveys to the 5 customers who have purchased the largest number of items over the past year. are his results likely to be representative of the population he is trying to analyze? explain.

The sample is from the right population, his customers. However, because he is surveying such a small number of people and only asking his best customers (who are probably the most satisfied, or they would not buy so much from him), the results are going to be biased, most likely positive, and not representative of his entire customer base.

Step-by-step explanation:

Only sending the survey to his best customers will yield biased results, most likely in the positive direction.

from the figure we get,

the x axis shows   the months and,

the y-axis shows the number of satisfied customer.

each line or each cell in upward direction (y-axis) shows 500.

the appropriate scale for the y - axis is: -

a = 2000 customers

b = 4000 customers

c = 6000 customers

d = 8000 customers

e = 10000 customers

f = 12000 customers

g = 14000 customers
