Question 287077: Simple random sampling uses a sample of size n from a population of size N to obtain data that can be used to make inferences about the characteristics of a population. Suppose that, from a population of 95 bank accounts, we want to take a random sample of eight accounts in order to learn about the population. How many different random samples of eight accounts are possible?
