A television station executive would like to determine whether there is more viewership during the 6 P.M. time slot or the7 P.M. time slot. The executive takes a random sample of 25 days and collects the viewership numbers for the 6 P.M. time slot into one sample and the viewership numbers for the 7 P.M. time slot into a second sample. The executive claims that these samples are independent. Do you agree? Explain. Select the correct answer below O Yes, because the executive sorted the data into two distinct sets. O No, because the data points in the first sample can be linked to data points in the second sample. O Yes, because the number of viewers at 6 P.M. will almost always be different than the number of viewers at 7 P.M. O Yes, because the same program must be shown during both time slots to make the samples truly dependent.
