Q. In a 20212021 online poll with 1515,000000 responses from US adults, 6161 percent of US adults responded that they think they can win an unarmed fight against a goose. Based on the results of the poll, which of the following statements must be true?\newlineI. About 6161 percent of US adults have won unarmed fights against geese.\newlineII. About 6161 percent of the world adult population think they can win an unarmed fight against a goose.\newlineIII. If 1515,000000 randomly selected US adults were surveyed, about 6161 percent of them would respond that they think they can win an unarmed fight against a goose.\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) None\newline(B) III only\newline(C) I and II only\newline(D) II and III only
  1. Calculate US adults: Calculate the number of US adults who think they can win an unarmed fight against a goose using the percentage given.\newline61%61\% of 15,00015,000 = 0.61×15,0000.61 \times 15,000
  2. Perform calculation: Perform the calculation to find the number of US adults. 0.61×15,000=9,1500.61 \times 15,000 = 9,150
  3. Analyze statement I: Analyze statement I: Just because 61%61\% of respondents think they can win doesn't mean they have actually won fights against geese.
  4. Analyze statement II: Analyze statement II: The poll only reflects the opinions of US adults, not the world adult population.
  5. Analyze statement III: Analyze statement III: The statement is a reasonable inference if the poll is representative of the US adult population.
  6. Choose correct answer: Choose the correct answer based on the analysis of the statements.\newlineThe correct answer is (B) IIIIII only.
