As part of ESPN's SportsCenturyRetrospective, a panel chosen by ESPN ranked the top 100 North American athletes of the twentieth century. For a class project, you are to obtain a simple random sample of 15 of these 100 athletes and briefly describe their athletic feats.

a. Explain how you can use Table I in Appendix A to obtain the simple random sample.

b. Starting at the three-digit number in line number 10 and column numbers 7-9 of Table I, read down the column, up the next, and so on, to find 15 numbers that you can use to identify the athletes to be considered.

c. If you have access to a random-number generator, use it to obtain the required simple random sample.
