I. MULTIPLE CHOICE. Choose the letter of the correct answer and write your answer in the space provided.
____1. A school chooses 3 randomly selected athletes from each of its sports teams to participate in a survey about athletics at the school.
What type of sample is this?
a. Simple Random Sampling c. Stratified Random Sampling
b. Clustered Sampling d. Systematic Random Sampling

_____3. At Amira’s pizza shop, they open a fresh batch of pizza sauce for every 10th pizza they make. Amira decides she wants to take a
sample of pizzas in a given day and evaluate their overall quality. Her shop makes approximately 150 pizzas per day, and she doesn’t
want to sample more pizzas for time’s sake. Amira decides to use systematic random samples where she’ll evaluate every k th pizza
made that day. Why might Amira choose k = 17, instead of k = 10?
a. Larger values of k produce samples that are generally more representative of the population.
b. In terms of pizza sauce freshness, Amira will likely get a more representative sample if she uses k = 17
c. Amira will sample more than 10 pizzas if she uses k = 10
d. None of the above.

c. Randomly select one of the first 5 students to arrive at class, and every 5th student thereafter to take the survey.
d. Randomly select one of the first 15 students to arrive to class, and every 15th student thereafter to take the survey.
____5. A concert venue offers tickets in 3 zones: orchestra, grand tier, and balcony. Tickets in the orchestra zone are the most expensive,
and tickets in the balcony zone are the least expensive. Managers of the venue want to survey approximately 150 guests at an

Which of these strategies will accomplish the intended design?
a. Use a computer to randomly select 150 tickets and invite those guests to participate in the survey.
b. Invite the first 150 guests who arrive to participate in the survey.
c. Invite every 10th guest who arrives to participate in the survey until 150 people have been selected.
d. Randomly select 50 tickets from each zone and invite those guests to participate in the survey.
____6. There are 90 students in a lunch period, and 5 of them will be selected at random for cleaning duty every week. Each student
receives a number 1-90 and the school uses a random digit table to select a simple random sample of 5 students. Which 5 students
should be assigned cleaning duty?

c. There is no significant difference between the number of fruits of control and experimental groups after using fertilizer X.
d. There is a significant difference between the number of fruits of control and experimental groups after using fertilizer X.

b. There is no difference between gender and opinion towards the taste of Milktea.
c. There is no possible hypothesis for the problem.
d. The problem is not testable.
