To randomly select 25 basketball players from the 300 players in the NBA, I would:

• Number the players from 01-25, read 3 digits at a time from a random table, discarding repeats and numbers over 25, and then stop when I reach 25.

• Number the players from 0-299, read 2 digits at a time from a random table, discarding repeats and numbers over 299, and stop when I reach 25.

• Number the players from 01-299, read 2 digits at a time from a random table, discarding repeats and numbers over 300, and stop when I reach 25.

• Number the players from 001-300, read 3 digits at a time from a random table, discarding repeats, 000 and numbers over 300, and stop when I reach 25.

• Convenience Sampling

Involves dividing the population into subgroups, you randomly select entire subgroups. What sampling technique is this?

• Simple Random Sample

• Snowball Sample

• Cluster Random Sample

• Stratified Random Sample

These symbols represent the mean and standard deviation for which of the following distributions?

• The Population

• The Sample

• The Sampling Distribution

The histogram represents data obtained after a census of an entire population. The sampling distribution of the sample mean based on samples of size 2 were simulated, and a histogram of the results was produced. Which of the following histograms is most likely the histogram of that sampling distribution?
