Question

The officers of a neighborhood association want to know whether residents are
interested in beautifying the neighborhood and, if so, how much money they are willing
to contribute toward the costs involved. The officers are considering two methods for
gathering data:
Method A: Call and survey every tenth resident on the association's roster.
Method B: Randomly select and survey 10 residents from among those who come to the
neighborhood block party.
Which sampling method is most likely to result in a representative sample of the
population; Method A or Method B?
