Use - sampling techniques to connect the rule to the data and decision in the question.

This matters because - sampling techniques determines what can be inferred or chosen; begin with the stated conditions and keep the conclusion tied to the evidence.

Example: apply - sampling techniques to one small, clearly defined case, show the key step or comparison, and explain the result in words.
