- A researcher is conducting a study with a population of 7,346 people. She wants a sample size of 80. Using simple random sampling identify “k.”Considering the researcher chooses to start at the person labeled 34, what would the next three participant numbers be?34, _____, ______, ____arrow_forwardTwo different blood pressure medicines are being compared to determine if the average reduction in blood pressure is the same for each medication. The goal of the study is to determine if the medications differ. Twenty men age 50-60 years old are selected for the study. Ten men are chosen at random to receive the first medication and the other 10 men receive the second medication. Each of the 20 men is monitored for one month to determine the change in blood pressure over that time. Minitab provides the 95% confidence interval for (mu1 - mu2) (2.63, 14.18) a. Interpret this 95% CI. b. What assumptions (be specific) are necessary to construct this CI?arrow_forwardRace organizers want to survey the participating runners on the quality of the running course. Which of the following uses systematic random sampling? Select the first 15 finishers and the last 15 finishers to take the survey. Randomly select 15% of the male participants and 15% of the female participants. Select the 5th finisher (with the number 5 being randomly chosen) to survey, then survey every 15th finisher after that. Sort all of the runners' names alphabetically, then randomly choose 2 letters and survey all participants whose last name begins with one of those letters.arrow_forward
- 2. In a population it is estimated that 20% have a desired trait of interest for the researcher. The researcher wants to know how many people on average he has to draw from a population to get 2 people with the trait. Use rows 20-24 of the Random Number Table to carry out the simulation. Explain clearly how you set up the problem and report your findings. Answer:arrow_forwardExplain the difference between a stratified sample and a cluster sample. (Select all that apply.) In a stratified sample, random samples from each strata are included In a stratified sample, every sample of size n has an equal chance of being included. In a stratified sample, the clusters to be included are selected at random and then all members of each selected cluster are included In a cluster sample, every sample of size n has an equal chance of being included. In a stratified sample, the only samples possible are those including every kth item from the random starting position In a cluster sample, the only samples possible are those including every kth item from the random starting position In a cluster sample, the clusters to be included are selected at random and then all members of each selected cluster are included. In a cluster sample, random les from each strata are included.arrow_forwardAn experiment consists of drawing two numbers out of a hat one after the other containing the numbers 1, 3, 5, 6. The two numbers are then recorded as a 2-digit number. The number drawn is NOT put back in the hat before drawing the second. Do the following: List the sample space.________________________________ Let F = the event of getting a number whose first digit is odd Let S = the event of getting a multiple of 6 Find P( F and S) =____________________________________ Find P(F) =______________________________ Find P(F|S) =_______________________________________ Are F and S independent events? ___________Justify_____________ VIII (15) Let E be the event that at least two people out of 4 have the same birth month (not day). How many outcomes in the Sample space. In other words, compute n(S).________ State in words the complement of E. _____________________________ How many outcomes in the event not E. In other words, compute n(not E). ________…arrow_forward
