Answer:

Sampling interval = 9.323

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Population size, N = 9500

Require sample, n = 1019

Sampling interval :

Population size / required sample size

Sampling interval = 9500 / 1019 = 9.3228

Interpretation :

In other to obtain a sample of 1019 drawn systematically from the population, a sample will be drawn at every 9.323 units from the population of 9500
