Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The sampling technique used is random sampling because each member of the population (the 70 contestants) has an equal chance of being selected and there is no pre-determined criteria for selecting the names. This is a random sampling technique because every card has an equal chance of being selected, and the selection of one card does not affect the selection of the others.
