What's simple random sampling? Is it possible to sample data instances using a distribution different from the uniform distribut

ion? If so, give an example of a probability distribution of the data instances that is different from uniform (i.e., equal probability).

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The procedure of selecting a sample is thus called, fulfilling two fundamental properties:

-All individuals in the population have the same probability of being elected.

-All samples of the same size are equally likely.

From a mathematical point of view, simple random sampling is performed assuming that the population has infinite elements. In practice, it is often the case that the populations to be considered have a very large number of elements, which can be compared to a situation with infinite elements.

Yes, it is possible to sample data instances using a distribution different from the uniform distribution.

In excel, do the following to obtain a sample dataset.

E.g. to create a 5 element sample from the standard normal distribution, place the formula = NORM.S.INV (RAND ()) in cell A1, highlight the range A1: A15 and press Ctrl-D.

For the function y=-1+6 cos(2pi/7(x-5)) what is the minimum value?
Ad libitum [116K]
Usually one will differentiate the function to find the minimum/maximum point, but in this case differentiating yields:
\frac{2\pi}{7(x-5)^{2}}\sin{\frac{2\pi}{7(x-5)}}}
which contains multiple solution if one tries to solve for x when the differentiated form is 0.

I would, though, venture a guess that the minimum value would be (approaching) 5, since the function would be undefined in the vicinity.

If, however, the function is
-1+\cos{\frac{2\pi}{7}(x-5)}}
Then differentiating and equating to 0 yields:
\sin{\frac{2\pi}{7}(x-5)}}=0
which gives:
x=5 or 8.5

We reject x=5 as it is when it ix the maximum and thus,
x=8.5\pm7n, for n=0,\pm 1,\pm 2, ...

How to find the missing angle of a triangle using trig when you only know 1?
Sedbober [7]
If you have

2 KNOWN sides & 1 Angle ;
Use Cosine Rule

If you have 3 KNOWN sides,
Also Cosine Rule

If you have

2 KNOWN angles & 1 side,
Use SINE rule

If it's a right-angled triangle, use SOH CAH TOA

Hopefully this helps
