Which of the following is the best reason that the sample maximum is not used as an estimator for the population maximum? (A) The sample maximum is biased. (B) The sampling distribution of the sample maximum is not binomial. (C) The sampling distribution of the sample maximum is not normal. (D) The sampling distribution of the sample maximum has too large a standard deviation. (E) The sample mean plus three sample standard deviations gives the best estimate for the population maximum.
