5 Sampling Methods
- Simple Random Sampling
-
Stratified Sampling
Sample from the groupeds -
Cluster Sampling
Sample the groupeds -
Systematic Sampling
k≈N/n (round down)
N: Population ct.
n: Sample ct. - Convenience Sampling
When constructing
Freq. Distribution
How to determine
Number of Classes
& Class Width
Useful guide:
2ᵏ > n
→ k > ㏑n/㏑2
(Round UP)
Width = (Max - Min) / k
Chebyshev’s Theorem:
Non-Normal Proportion Data Set
How to find k in
μ ± kσ or
xbar ± ks
% ≥ 1- 1/k²
Chebyshev’s Theorem:
Empirical Rule
when:
μ ± 1σ
μ ± 2σ
μ ± 3σ
≈68%
≈95%
≈99.7%

Variance
Mean μ = E(x)
= ∑ [ P(x)·x ]
Variance σ²
= ∑ [ P(x)·(x-μ)² ]
In Binomial Probability Formula
Mean μ

Variance σ²

μ = n·p
Variance
σ² = n·p·q
In Poisson Probability Distribution
Mean μ = E(x)
&
Variance σ²
Mean
λ = μ = E(x)
= n·p
Variance
λ = σ²

P(A & B)
P(A | B) =—————
