How much do Master of Public Health (MPH) students earn? We are all very concerned with the rising cost of higher education and the amount of money that many students must borrow to complete their studies. A university official wants to know how much MPH students earn from employment during the academic year and during the summer. The student population at the official’s school consists of 378 MPH students who have completed at least one year of MPH study at three different campuses. A questionnaire will be sent to an SRS of 75 of these students.

(a) You have a list of the current email addresses and telephone numbers of all the 378 students. Describe how you would derive an SRS of n = 30 from this population.

(b) Use Table A starting in line 13 to identify the first 3 students in your sample.
