The easiest way to do this is by ignoring the 0, a nine, or those that has been used before and assign the four other numbers

So the answer would be : 
- Scott
- Robin
- Jon
- Elizabeth

Answer:

Use the first numbers to assign the treatment to the individuals.

Explanation:

The names of the individuals are:

1. Amanda: 20742

2. Scott: 05310

3. Tessa: 65921    

4. Jon: 01652

5. Elizabeth: 75532  

6. Kevin: 95621  

7. Robin: 12097

8. Mike: (no number assigned)

I am assuming that the numbers that are random and are given to them in the order seen.  First, remove all the persons that have a zero or 9 in front and no number assigned to their names . That leaves 20742 , 65921, 75532, 12097.

The four individuals would be Amanda, Tessa, Elizabeth and Kevin.

There are other ways to do this randomized selection, that also involves eliminating the numbers with zeros and those that have been used in the same numbers.    

It can also be done by using the first two digits, also eliminating the zero and assigning the numbers from lowest to highest alphabetically in ascending or descending  order.

Four volunteers will always be chosen based on any of these methods.

What causes surface runoff?
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Runoff occurs when there is more water than land can absorb. The excess liquid flows across the surface of the land and into nearby creeks, streams, or ponds. ... Glaciers, snow, and rain all contribute to this natural runoff. Runoff also occurs naturally as soil is eroded and carried to various bodies of water.
