Class Project: Number of Siblings. This exercise is a class project and works best in relatively large classes.
a. Determine the number of siblings for each student in the class.
b. Obtain a relative-frequency histogram for the number of siblings. Use single-value grouping.
c. Obtain a simple random sample of about one-third of the students in the class.
d. Find the number of siblings for each student in the sample.
e. Obtain a relative-frequency histogram for the number of siblings for the sample. Use single-value grouping.
f. Repeat parts (c)-(e) three more times.
g. Compare the histograms for the samples to each other and to that for the entire population. Relate your observations to key Fact 2.1
