The graph contains 10 sampling proportions; the data is based on a survey asking people what type of phones they own. Based on the graph, is it possible to determine the percentage of people who own a specific brand of phone?

No, the data number is so small that the variability will be high; it is not possible to make an approximation of the population proportion.

Yes, it is possible because the sampling distribution is symmetric.

Yes, it is possible because even though the graph is not symmetrical, you can still make use of the 10 sample proportions to make an estimate of the population proportion.

No, because there is less variability in samples of small sizes.

This response acknowledges that while sample sizes can introduce variability, it's still possible to estimate population parameters using the data collected from the 10 sample proportions, despite potential issues with symmetry or sample size.
