The Admirable Qualities of My Mother

Hello, I have to talk about the person I admire the most, who is my mother, because of the way she has to deal with everything that has happened. I admire her for the patience she has with me and my brothers, who are two, Alejandro who studies high school and Azul who studies high school. My mom is a very funny patient person, although she gets angry, I think it's because of the work and the physical fatigue that this produces. She has green eyes, she is tall with blond hair, she measures approximately 1.67 meters, it is the most important thing for me, she and my brothers and I think that I hope the matter passes

Understanding Simple Random Sampling in Statistics

Classified in Mathematics

Written on in English with a size of 652 bytes

Simple Random Sample

A sample designed in such a way as to ensure that (1) every member of a population has an equal chance of being included in the sample, and (2) every sample of size n has the same chance of occurring.

Selecting Elements

Subjects are selected at fixed sampling intervals by selecting every kth element thereafter. The interval between selections is determined by the ratio of the population size to the sample size (N/n). For example, if the population size is N=1,000 and a sample size of n=100 is desired, then the sampling interval is 1,000/100 = 10, so every 10th person is selected into the sample.
