- (d) As part of a marketing program, a city block containing 4 households was selected and a sample of 3 households was sampled as follows. Jeremiah, the research assistant, identified the households and numbered each household from 1 to 4. He then want to list all combinations of the 4 households 2 at a time. These are: 1 and 2 1 and 3 1 and 4 2 and 3 2 and 4 3 and 4 Unfortunately, Jeremiah got this job because he was related to the Department Chairman, and he was very careless. He forgot the combina- tion 3 and 4. He chose a random number between 1 and 5 (it turned out to be 4) which corresponded to the combination 2 and 3. Thus households 2 and 3 were sampled. The variable of interest was out-of-pocket medical expenses incurred by the household (Table Q1 (d)).
