Respuesta :

Answer:

c.systematic random sampling.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using sampling concepts, it is found that this type of sample is called systematic random sampling, which means that option c is correct.

How are samples classified?

Samples may be classified as:

  • Convenient: Drawn from a conveniently available pool.
  • Random: All the options into a hat and drawn some of them.
  • Systematic: Every kth element is taken.
  • Cluster: Divides population into groups, called clusters, and each element in the cluster is surveyed.
  • Stratified: Also divides the population into groups. Then, a equal proportion of each group is surveyed.

In this problem, after the 1st person is surveyed, every kth person, with k = 5 is surveyed, hence it is a systematic random sampling and option c is correct.
