Question

A farmer of a large apple orchard would like to estimate the true mean number of suitable apples produced per
tree. He selects a random sample of 40 trees from his large orchard and determines with 95% confidence that the
true mean number of suitable apples produced per tree is between 375 and 520 apples. Which of the following can
be accounted for by the margin of error of this interval?
OOO
response bias
nonresponse bias
sampling variation
undercoverage bias

Answer 1

Answer:

Sampling variation

Step-by-step explanation: took the quiz

Answer 2

The option that the margin of error accounts for in the given interval is sampling variation.

What is sampling variation?

This refers to the fact that in a sample, there will be a difference between the variables seen.

This variation is the reason why there is a margin of error in intervals because we need to introduce a range that the relevant variable will fall into.
