Solve the following question/s with a heart and soul. Show your complete solution for full or partial credit.

1. An experimenter wants to estimate the average weight of 90 rats (50 male and 40 female) being fed a certain
diet. The rats were separated by sex; hence, using stratified random sampling with two strata seems
appropriate. To approximate the variability within each stratum, the experimenter selects the smallest and
largest rats in each stratum and weighs them. She finds that the range is 10 grams for the males and 8 grams
for the females. How large a sample should be taken in order to estimate the population average with a bound
of 1 gram on the error of estimation? Assume the cost of sampling is the same for both strata. The standard
deviation should be approximately one-fourth of the range.

2. A sociologist wants to estimate the per-capita income in a certain small city. The clusters are numbered on a
city map, with the numbers from 1 to 415. The experimenter has enough time and money to sample clusters
and to interview every household within each cluster. Hence, 25 random numbers between 1 and 415 are
selected, and the clusters having these numbers are marked on the map. Interviewers are then assigned to
each of the sampled clusters. Interviews are conducted in each of the 25 blocks sampled. The data on incomes
are presented below. Use the data to calculate:
A. Ratio estimator of the population mean;
B. Estimated variance of the population mean;
C. Standard error of population mean;
D. Confidence interval for population mean;
 E. Estimator of population total;
F. Estimated variance of population total;
G. Standard error of population total; and
H. confidence interval for population interval
