PLZ HELP ASAP WILL MEDAL!!! 3. A researcher would like to take a sample of students at a large high school. a. Describe a sampling plan that would result in a simple random sample. b. Describe a systematic sampling plan
This is confusing to me too. Not the problem its the Sentence for a
is this statistics?
yes :)
I guess sytematic sampling for A since you will be taking randomly from groups and create a random sampling
and then just describe it lol they pretty much told you the answer on the second question
ah ok :) but i was wondering if i am supposed to describe a systematic sampling plan based on the question?
or is it just me having to write what is ?
you could but it would be the same thing as describing how a systematic sampling functions :)
ah ok thankyou so much!! :D
no problem also, this might confuse you a bit but it depends on your point of view. I'm guessing systematic also because of question B. But in my personal opinion for A stratified sampling would be better since you would be doing this https://faculty.elgin.edu/dkernler/statistics/ch01/images/strata-sample.gif and as you can see that is a random sample when systematic is picking people based on every th number
but they could be both correct but your teacher most likely wants you to pick systematic ...I was just saying in case you want to add to your answer :)
