In a survey conducted by representatives of the nuclear power industry, people were asked the question: ‘‘Do you favor the construction of nuclear power plants in order to reduce our dependence on foreign oil?’’

a. Do you think that the percentage of people favoring the construction of nuclear power plants would be about the same in both surveys?

b. Would either of the two surveys produce reliable results?

Explain.
