If we were to graph the relationship of sample size (x axis)to sample accuracy (y axis),we would notice that:
A)there is a linear relationship between size and accuracy.
B)accuracy increases quickly,up to about sample size 500,and then accuracy levels off with relatively small gains made even when sample size is increased to as much as 2,000.
C)accuracy increases quickly,up to about sample size 5,000,and then accuracy levels off with relatively small gains made even when sample size is increased to as much as 200,000.
D)accuracy increases quickly,up to about sample size 50,and then accuracy levels off with relatively small gains made even when sample size is increased to as much as 100.
E)We cannot graph sample size and accuracy because we must also include the level of confidence and the variability within the sample data.

As sample size increases, accuracy does increase quickly up to a certain point, but then levels off with smaller gains made even when the sample size is increased to a much larger number (around 500). Beyond a certain point, increasing sample size does not necessarily increase accuracy by a significant amount.
