Answer:

b. Stratified sampling

Explanation:

Stratified sampling is a method of sampling that divides the total population into tiers, or strata, and then randomly selects individuals from each tier. Since members of the same tier have similar characteristics, this method is useful to better represent the totality of the population. In this situation, the researcher selects a company from each 10-companies tier within the 500 largest industrial corporations; therefore, stratified sampling was used.
