Concept explainers
The American League consists of 15 baseball teams. Suppose a sample of 5 teams is to be selected to conduct player interviews. The following table lists the 15 teams and the random numbers assigned by Excel’s RAND
Select a random sample size 5.
Answer to Problem 1P
The simple random sample consists of Team Ne, Team De, Team Oa, Team Bo, and Team Ka.
Explanation of Solution
The ascending order of random number is given below:
Team | Random Number |
Ne | 0.178624 |
De | 0.253574 |
Oa | 0.288287 |
Bo | 0.290197 |
Ka | 0.326836 |
Te | 0.500879 |
Ch | 0.562178 |
Ba | 0.57837 |
Ho | 0.713682 |
Mi | 0.81181 |
Se | 0.839071 |
Ta | 0.867778 |
Lo | 0.895267 |
To | 0.965807 |
The simple random sample consists of least 5 random numbers.
Therefore, the simple random sample of size 5 is Team Ne, Team De, Team Oa, Team Bo, and Team Ka
