    MAUREEN L. M. INTERMEDIATE MICROECONOMICS SAMPLING TECHNIQUES INTRODUCTION A sample is a unit or subset of selection from a larger population that is used in studying to draw conclusions regarding the whole population. A sample is usually selected from the population because it is not easy to study the entire population at once and the cost of doing so may be very high. The sample should be the best representation of the whole population to enable accurate outcomes and accurate

    Sampling distribution The sampling distribution is the distribution of the values of a sample statistic computed for each possible sample that could be drawn from the target population under a specified sampling plan. Because many different samples could be drawn from a population of elements‚ the sample statistics derived from any one sample will likely not equal the population parameters. As a result‚ the sampling distribution supplies an approximation of the true value’s population parameters

    variable X is a weighted average of the possible values that the random variable can take. Unlike the sample mean of a group of observations‚ which gives each observation equal weight‚ the mean of a random variable weights each outcome xi according to its probability‚ pi. The mean also of a random variable provides the long-run average of the variable‚ or the expected average outcome over many observations.The common symbol for the mean (also known as the expected value of X) is ‚ formally defined by Variance
