The Department of Health is conducting random drug testing in a barangay in relation to their age. You are the officer assigned to conduct the test in your own barangay. You only need 10 randomly selected students to be tested. You are to give instructions to the school director on how you are going to select the 10 students by applying your knowledge of the methods of sampling. To do the task well, you need to ensure that the sample is selected randomly. From a sample of 10, you take a sample size of 2.
TASKS:
A. Identify the appropriate method of sampling in the given situation and explain how you are going to do it.
B. Create a probability distribution that includes the list of your possible samples.
C. Compute for the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the means.
D. Construct a probability histogram of your sampling distribution.

Homer Simpson is interested in studying the ratio of the various colors of sprinkles on Lard Lad donuts. To conduct his study, Homer purchases three of each variety of donut they make and counts the sprinkles on them. What method did Homer use to select his sample?

2. Simple Random Sample
3. Systematic

A transportation researcher is funded to estimate the proportion of automobile tires with an unsafe tread thickness in a small northern state. The researcher randomly selects one month during each of the four seasons for taking the measurements. During each of the four selected months, the researcher randomly selects 500 cars from the list of registered cars in the state and then measures the tread thickness of the four tires on each of the selected cars.
a) What is the population of interest?
b) What is the sampling frame?
c) What biases if any may result from using the data from this study to obtain the estimated proportion of cars with an unsafe thread thickness?

Suppose you want to investigate the proportion of households in Muscat governorate that have fire extinguishers installed in their places. Briefly explain two types of frames you can use in sampling the households.

A 129-kg astronaut (including space suit) acquires a speed of 2.90 m/s by pushing off with her legs from a 1900-kg space capsule. Use the reference frame in which the capsule is at rest before the push.
What is the velocity of the space capsule after the push in the reference frame? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Enter positive value if the direction of the velocity is in the direction of the velocity of the astronaut and negative value if the direction of the velocity is in the direction opposite to the velocity of the astronaut.

Data from a sample survey contain 28% foreign born and 72% native born when the population of interest is 22-78. What procedure adjusts the sample to match the population?
