Five state officials are listed to the right. a. List the 10 possible samples​ (without replacement) of size 3 that can be obtained from the population of five officials. Governor ​(Upper G​) Lieutenant Governor ​(Upper L​) Secretary of State ​(Upper S​) Representative ​(Upper R​) Press Secretary ​(Upper P​) b. If a simple random sampling procedure is used to obtain a sample of three ​officials, what are the chances that it is the first sample on your list in part​ (a)? the second​ sample? the tenth​ sample? a. List all 10 possible samples​ (without replacement) of size 3. Use the letter abbreviation for each official.

Answer:

All possible are:

(G,L,S)

(G,L,R)

(G,L,P)

(G,S,R)

(G,S,P)

(G,R,P)

(L,S,R)

{L,R,P)

Probability of 1st/2nd/10th sample = 1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

All the possible combinations of the 3 size samples from a 5 size population have been listed without repetition.

Total Numbers of Samples = 10

To find the probability of finding the first sample from random sampling procedure,

Probability = Number of desired outcomes/ Total number of outcomes

Where Number of desired outcome is 1 and total number of outcomes is 10.

Probability = 1/10

Similarly, to find 2nd sample or 10th sample, the number of desired outcomes is same i.e 1, hecne the probability remains the same i.e 1/10

Possible samples:

(G,L), (G,S), (G,A), (G,P), (L,S), (S,A), (A,P), (L,P), (S,P), (A,L).

a) Given:

Population size [tex]N=5[/tex].

Sample size [tex]n=2[/tex]

Possible sample (without replacement)

[tex]\Rightarrow 5C_{2}=\frac{5!}{2!\times 3!}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{5\times 4}{2}[/tex]

[tex]=10[/tex]

[tex]10 samples:-[/tex]

Governor, Lieutenant Governor, secretary of state, Attorney General, Press (P)

Possible samples:

(G,L), (G,S), (G,A), (G,P), (L,S), (S,A), (A,P), (L,P), (S,P), (A,L).

b) Event: [tex]E\to[/tex]choosing sample second and tenth.

[tex]E=\left\{\left ( G,S \right ),\left ( A,L \right ) \right\}\\n\left ( E \right )=2\\n(S) =10[/tex]

The Probability of that it is the first sample.

Second and tenth sample[tex]=\frac{n\left ( E \right )}{n(S)}[/tex]

                                           [tex]=\frac{2}{10}[/tex]

                                           [tex]=\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
