Sampling Problems. Sampling techniques can be used to estimate physical quantities. To estimate a large quantity, you might measure a representative small sample and find the total quantity by “scaling up.” To estimate a small quantity, you might measure several of the small quantities together and “scale down.” In each of the following, describe your estimation technique and answer the questions.
Example: How thick is a sheet of a paper?
Solution: One way to estimate the thickness of a sheet of paper is to measure the thickness of a ream (500 sheets) of paper. A particular ream was 7.5 centimeters thick. Thus, a sheet of paper from this ream was 7.5 cm / 500 = 0.015 cm, or 0.15 millimeter, thick.

This case studyinvolves analyzing satisfaction data to test two key hypotheses about Unilever's performancerelative to its main competitor, Procter & Gamble (P&G).Unilever’s leadership team has emphasized the importance of customer satisfaction inmaintaining competitive advantage and market leadership. As part of this initiative, yourteam regularly monitors satisfaction scores and benchmarks them against competitors likeP&G.You are tasked with analyzing the provided dataset to answer the following questions:1. Does Unilever’s average customer satisfaction score meet the minimum threshold of2. 75%?Is there no significant difference between Unilever’s overall average satisfaction scoreand P&G’s average satisfaction score?arrow_forwardPlease help me first one graphically and the other in matrixarrow_forward

A survey classified a large number of adults according to whether they were diag- nosed as needing eyeglasses to correct their reading vision and whether they use eyeglasses when reading. The proportions falling into the four resulting categories are given in the following table: Use Eyeglasses for Reading Needs glasses Yes No Yes 0.44 0.14 No 0.02 0.40 If a single adult is selected from the large group, find the probabilities of the events defined below.
