Concept explainers
a.
To list: The numbers that are repeated in the random number generation and the number of times each of these numbers occur.
b.
To repeat: The process in part a by changing maximum value to 20 and keeping sample size fixed at 10 and continue by increasing maximum value by 10 each time keeping sample size fixed at 10, until no repetitions are found.
To find: The smallest maximum value for which no repetitions were observed.
c.
To describe: The relationship between the population size (maximum value) and the number of repetitions in the list of random numbers as the population size increases and sample size remains same.
The conclusion about using a random number generator to choose a relatively small sample from a large population.
