Question 7.42

12. Each March, the Current Population Survey (CPS) is expanded to gather a wider variety of information than what is collected in the monthly reports. Suppose in one March survey, we are interested in participants whose highest level of education is a bachelor’s degree and who are between the ages of 25 and 64. It turns out that 14,959 of the survey respondents fall into this category. Think of them as a population.

  1. To select an SRS of these people, how would you assign labels?
  2. Use Table 7.1 (page 298), starting at line 107, to choose the first three members of the SRS.
