Statistical Inferences — Quiz

Question 19 • Algebra II

Dawn and Pablo are members of a normally distributed population that is being sampled. If the chance of Dawn being included in the sample is 0 point 0 5 percent , what must the chance of Pablo being included in the sample be in order to be able to make inferences about the population based on the sample?

Answer
A
0 percent
B
greater than 0 percent and less than 0 point 0 5 percent
C
0 point 0 5 percent
D
greater than 0 point 0 5 percent

Explanation

To make inferences about the population from a random sample, each member of the population must have the same chance of being selected. Since Dawn’s chance is 0.05%, Pablo’s chance must also be 0.05%. Therefore, the correct choice is “0.05 percent.”
