Answer:

1) 8

2) 6

3)  a.) Brian's sample

4) d.) Larger sample size

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  8 is the number of items in the sample

2) 6  is the number of items in the sample

3)  a.) Brian's sample as sample is bigger

4) d.) Larger sample size

The "mean" is the "average" you're used to, where you add up all the numbers and then divide by the number of numbers. So, when the sample size is bigger, mean is more accurate.
