The CEO of a local tech company wants to estimate the proportion of employees that are pleased with the cleanliness of the break

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Methods of obtaining a sample of 600 employees from the 4,700 workforce:

Part A: The type of sampling method proposed by the CEO is Convenience Sampling.

Part B: When there are equal number of participants in both campuses, stratification by campus would give a more precise approximation of the proportion of employees who are satisfied with the cleanliness of the breakrooms than stratification by gender. Another method to ensure that stratification by campus gives a more precise approximation of the proportion of employees who are satisfied with the cleanliness of the breakrooms than stratification by gender is to ensure that the sample is proportional to the proportion of each campus to the whole population or workforce.

Step-by-step explanation:

A Convenience Sampling technique is a non-probability (non-random) sampling method and the participants are selected based on availability (early attendees). The early attendees might be different from the late attendees in characteristics such as age, sex, etc. Therefore, sampling biases are present. All non-probability sampling methods are prone to volunteer bias.

Stratified sampling is more accurate and representative of the population. It reduces sampling bias. The difficulty arises in choosing the characteristic to stratify by.

A conservative estimate of the number of stars in the universe is 6 x 10^22. The average human can see about 3,000 stars at nigh

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

$2 \times 10^{19}$ times more stars are there in universe compared to human eye can see

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that, conservative estimate of the number of stars in the universe is $6 \times 10^{22}$

The average human can see about 3,000 stars at night with only their eyes

To find: Number of times more stars are there in the universe, compared to the stars a human can see

Let "x" be the number of times more stars are there in the universe, compared to the stars a human can see

Then from given statement,

$\text{Stars in universe} = x \times \text{ number of stars human can see}$

<em><u>Substituting given values we get,</u></em>

$6 \times 10^{22} = x \times 3000\\\\x = \frac{6 \times 10^{22}}{3000}\\\\x = \frac{6 \times 10^{22}}{3 \times 10^3}\\\\x = 2 \times 10^{22-3}\\\\x = 2 \times 10^{19}$
