Your SRS contains the students labeled

a. 14,45,92,60,56

b. 14,31,03,10,22

c. 14,03,10,22,22

d.14,03,10,22,06

e.14,03,10,22,11

Short Answer

Expert verified

SRS contains students labeled with 14,03,10,22,06i.e. option (d) is correct.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

We need to find the correct labeling of students in SRS

02

Explanation

The pupils are labeled 01,02,...,30, and we want to pick five students at random.

1445926056314248037165103622532249061181

In the given line, choose the first two-digit number. If the number is between 01and 30(inclusive), the appropriate student will be chosen; otherwise, the two-digit number will be ignored and the next two-digit number will be chosen.

Repeat until 5distinct pupils have been chosen.

Most popular questions from this chapter

Go Blue! Michigan Stadium, also known as "The Big House," seats over 100,000fans for a football game. The University of Michigan Athletic Department wants to survey fans about concessions that are sold during games. Tickets are most expensive for seats on the sidelines. The cheapest seats are in the end zones (where one of the authors sat as a student). A map of the stadium is shown.


a. Describe how to obtain a sample using stratified random sampling. Explain your choice of strata and why this method might be preferred to simple random sampling.

b. Describe how to obtain a sample using cluster sampling. Explain your choice of clusters and why this method might be preferred to simple random sampling.

A simple random sample of 1200 adult Americans is selected, and each person is asked

the following question: 鈥淚n light of the huge national deficit, should the government at this

time spend additional money to send humans to Mars?鈥� Only 39% of those responding

answered 鈥淵es.鈥� This survey

a. is reasonably accurate because it used a large simple random sample.

b. needs to be larger because only about 24 people were drawn from each state.

c. probably understates the percent of people who favor sending humans to Mars.

d. is very inaccurate but neither understates nor overstates the percent of people who favor

sending humans to Mars. Because simple random sampling was used, it is unbiased.

e. probably overstates the percent of people who favor sending humans to Mars.

Running red lights An SRS of 880 drivers was asked: 鈥淩ecalling the last

ten traffic lights you drove through, how many of them were red when you entered the

intersections?鈥� Of the 880 respondents, 171 admitted that at least one light had been red.

A practical problem with this survey is that people may not give truthful answers. Explain

the likely direction of the bias.

Immigration reform A news organization wants to know what percent of U.S. residents support a 鈥減athway to citizenship鈥� for people who live in the United States illegally. The news organization randomly selects registered voters for the survey. Describe how under coverage might lead to bias in this study. Explain the likely direction of the bias.

Tweet, tweet! What proportion of students at your school use Twitter? To find out, you survey a simple random sample of students from the school roster.

a. Will your sample result be exactly the same as the true population proportion? Explain your answer.

b. Which would be more likely to produce a sample result closer to the true population value: an SRS of 50students or an SRS of 100students? Explain your answer.
