Question

A certain city divides naturally into ten district neighborhoods. How might a real estate appraiser select a sample of single-family homes that could be used as a basis for developing an equation to predict appraised value from characteristics such as age, size, number of bathrooms, distance to the nearest school, and so on

Answer 1

An appropriate method is to generate a simple random sample of all single-family homes in the city or a stratified random sample by taking a simple random sample from each of the ten district neighborhoods

Step-by-step explanation:

To accurately generate the sample for this enumerative study, a simple random sample of every single family homes in the city is expected to be collected, or a stratified random sample by performing the same task as above, but from each of the ten districts in the neighborhood. The desired variables can be measured from each of the homes that were selected.
