Do you trust the Internet? You want to ask a sample of high school students the question “How much do you trust information about health that you find on the Internet—a great deal, somewhat, not much, or not at all?” You try out this and other questions on a pilot group of 5 students chosen from your class. The class members are listed below.


(a) Explain how you would use a line of Table D to choose an SRS of 5 students from the following list. Explain your method clearly enough for a classmate to obtain your results.

(b) Use line 107 to select the sample.

Respuesta :

Random selection of students from the list of 40 students is an illustration of sampling technique.

  • A way of selecting 5 of the 40 students is to assign numbers to each student, then select 5 lines at random (repeated selection will be ignored).
  • Using line 107, the 5 selected students are: Arroyo, Calloway, Drasin, Puri and Rider

(a) Select 5 students using SRS

The following steps would ensure a random selection of 5 students from the list.

  • Assign number to each student (see figure 1)
  • Draw a line of random number
  • Select any 5 students whose name is on the line (ignore repetitions)

(b) Using line 107

Line 107 means that, we draw the following lines:

  • Across the diagonal
  • On the 0th column
  • On the 7th row

Then select any 5 names from the lines

From the lines (see figure 2), the selected names are: Arroyo, Calloway, Drasin, Puri and Rider
