Question

Please! Help! Mr. Acosta determines which four members of a population, labeled 01 through 46, will be in a sample by starting at line 158. Which members are in the sample?
A. 04, 40, 31, 37
B. 04, 03, 17, 06
C. 46, 31, 40, 06
D. 46, 03, 17, 40

Answer 1

The correct answer is A.

Starting at line 158, we analyze each pair of numbers to see if they fit the criteria.  68 is too large; 04 is the first one that works. 65 is too large; 40 is the second one that works.  31 is the third one that works.  75 and 84 are too large; 00 is not within the limits; 66 is too large; 37 is the fourth one that works.
