What type of survey would provide the most accurate prediction for the student election? Explain your reasoning.

No, the School Newspaper surveying only 7th-grade students is not an accurate sample of the entire student body. To make an informed prediction for the election, a stratified random sample representing each grade level would be more accurate.

The most accurate prediction for the student election would come from a stratified random sampling method, where students from each grade level are randomly selected to participate in the survey. This method ensures that each grade is proportionally represented in the sample, leading to a more reliable prediction.
