• 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.
