Suppose the population is 60% women and 40% men, and that we want to question a sample of 200 total. Decide on a quota of 120 women (60%) and 80 men (40%) and then stop people as they appear until we have the required number of each.
in the 4th question, it shows quantitative cannot be measured. and it is false. I didn’t mark it but it shows it is true. how is that possible you can measure quantitative aspects.

100%
@aishu says
Can u explain 3rd question pls
ekarthur says
please add the answers to the report so that we can revise it later. thank you
John Moffat says
The answers appear when you click on ‘review quiz’.

you can measure quantitative aspects.
John Moffat says
The answer does not show it as true. The answer specifically states that it can be measured.
senadeeekanayake says
can you please explain me about the “how the continuous data can take on any value?”
DevTantia says
For the 4th question, continuous data can’t be calculated for qualitative information
John Moffat says
But that is not relevant to the question as asked.
mannannagpal says
Is “knowing each item in the population” important in random sampling?
mbarrie says
It was helpful ??thank you very much,but please if the answers would be shown after the test it will be nice *
John Moffat says
The answers are shown if you click on the ‘review quiz’ button after having submitted your answers!
mannannagpal says
is “knowing each item in the population” also important in systematic sampling?
John Moffat says
No, because we would be selecting every n’th item regardless of what was the case in the population as a whole.
mannannagpal says
Could you please explain what is population data and what is continuous data?
John Moffat says
The population is all the items in the particular category (out of which we take a sample).
Continuous data is explained in the lectures on Measures of average and dispersion.
vvian says
Could you explain what is the quantitative data?
EstherLam says
Question 3
How is the knowledge of each item of the population true of Stratified sampling ?
John Moffat says
You have to know what proportion of the population are in each group in order to know what proportion of each group to sample.
vvian says
What is the mean of the “knowledge is in deeded of each item of population ” about stratified sampling.
daslanov says
Question 2. Why is not multistage sampling, although there is no such answer to choose?
John Moffat says
Because taking every 20th item is systematic sampling, not multistage sampling.
See the explanation of both in our free lectures notes and the free lectures that go with the notes.
daslanov says
Now I noticed the tricky moment in the question, it starts just pocking 12th iteam, NOT each 12th iteam.
Thank you for the help, sir
John Moffat says
You are welcome 🙂
