Choose from convenience, simple random, systematic, stratified or quota to classify each of the
following sampling techniques that Evan might use.

a Evan selects any 100 fish at random.

b A random fish is chosen and then every 20th fish after that until Evan has 100 fish.

c The fish consist of 80% round fish and 20% flat fish. Evan selects 80 round and 20 flat fish.

d A sample of 100 fish is taken by organizing the fish by 5 species and then taking 20 from
each species

b Find the shaded area and state the percentage of the class expected to score between 60 and 80.

10 A pack of coffee is sold as weighing 230gms but the manufacturer maintains a weight of 231 grams
as the average so as not to cheat customers. Coffee packs are normally distributed with a mean of
231 grams and a standard deviation of 1.5 grams.

A pack of coffee is considered to be underweight if it weighs less than 228 grams.

a What is the probability that a pack of coffee is underweight?

The manufacturer decides that the probability of a pack being underweight must be reduced to
0.002. He gives this problem to two junior executives, Eden and Haven

b Eden’s suggestion is to increase the mean and leave the standard deviation unchanged. Find the
value of the new mean.

c Haven’s suggestion is to reduce the standard deviation and leave the mean unchanged. Find the
value of the new standard deviation.

d After the probability of a pack of coffee being underweight has been reduced to 0.002, the store
sells 100 packs. Find the probability that at least two of the boxes are underweight.
