A research team would like to select a total of seventy students from three different majors for a study on the career preferences of college students. Of the undergraduate students selected, 20% are math majors, 40% are history majors,
and the remaining are engineering majors. Twenty-five engineering majors were chosen in a simple random sample for
the study. How does that number compare to the number of engineering majors that would have been chosen In a
stratified proportionate sample?
It is lower than what would have been chosen in a stratified proportionate sample.
It is higher than what would have been chosen in a stratified proportionate sample.
It is the same number of students as would have been chosen in a stratified proportionate sample.
There is no way to tell how many engineering students would have been chosen in either sample.
