Accepted Answer

The correct term is "sample frame." It refers to the list or database from which a sample is drawn. It is essentially a comprehensive list that includes all members of the population from which the sample will be selected.

Question 6

&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..refers to the number of units to be chosen from the population&#10;A)Sampling plan&#10;B)sampling method&#10;C)sampling frame&#10;D)sample size

Accepted Answer

Sample size refers to the number of units to be chosen from the population for the purpose of conducting a study or research.

Question 7

&#8230;&#8230;..&#8230; is an example of random number table.&#10;A)Tippet's table&#10;B)logarithm table&#10;C)Chi- square table&#10;D)none of these

Accepted Answer

Tippet's table is specifically designed as a random number table, used for selecting random samples or for simulation purposes in statistics.

Question 8

If the population is &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;. , stratified sampling method is used.&#10;A)Systematic&#10;B)homogeneous&#10;C)heterogeneous&#10;D)scattered

Accepted Answer

Stratified sampling is used for heterogeneous populations, where the population is divided into distinct subgroups or strata that are different from each other. This method ensures that each subgroup is adequately represented in the sample.

Question 9

Combining different methods of sampling is called&#8230;&#8230; sampling&#10;A)Simple random&#10;B)systematic&#10;C)multi- stage&#10;D)area

Accepted Answer

Multi-stage sampling involves combining different methods of sampling, often used for large-scale surveys where a straightforward approach like simple random sampling is not practical. It typically involves breaking down the population into smaller groups or stages and then applying different sampling techniques at each stage.

Question 10

&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;. Samples are best suited for exploratory research.&#10;A)Systematic&#10;B)convenience&#10;C)judgment&#10;D)random
