4. We will sample approximately 50 males and 50 females so that our sample is gender balanced. We will
attempt to employ a systematic sample of asking every 5th student who walks by the front of the library,
the cafeteria and the parking lot 4. We will make sure that we have more than 30 students who intend to
transfer in our sample.
5. We will use a histogram to display our age data and a pie graph to display our data about whether or not
a student intends to transfer.
6. We will be asking questions of students on campus. Our questions are as follows:
a. Do you intend to transfer? (Yes or No)
b. What is your age?
