A. Yes, because the trees in the sample are chosen randomly. The sample size also appears to be large enough to avoid bias
As long as the sample is randomly selected and representative of the entire population of trees, the farmer's generalization can be considered valid. The fact that each tree in the sample has at least 230 apples is a good sign that the sample is sufficiently large.
A farmer wants to know if her apples are sweet enough for juice. The farm has 12000 apple trees. Each one has at least 230 apple from each tree for testing. She then generalized that the trees are sweet enough for juice. Is the farmer's generalization valid?
A. Yes, because the trees in the sample are chosen randomly.The sample size also appears to be large enough to avoid bias

C. Yes because all trees in the sample have at least 230 apples
D. No because 700 trees in the sample is too large
