Max wants to calculate students’ confidence levels in their current math class. His population is every student enrolled in a MTH class. Manju cannot collect data on everyone in his population but wants to collect at least 75 responses. What are two sampling methods that he could utilize to collect data? Describe two different sampling methods that you think would be best to collect 75 responses. For full credit, explain the benefits each sampling method has over the other method
