(850)x(0.85)=722.50
By multiplying the original price by .85 you get the sale price with the 15% off.

If it is on sale for 15%, then you are paying 85% (100-15) of the original price.

To find 85% of 850, you do 850*.85 to get $722.50

Hope this helps

Given:
p = 20% = 0.2, sample proportion
n = 5000, sample size.
Confidence level = 95%

The confidence interval is
(p - 1.96k, p + 1.96k)
where
$k=\sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }=\sqrt{ \frac{0.2*0.8}{5000}} =0.00566$

Therefore the 95% confidence interval is
(0.1943, 0.2057) = (19.4%, 20.6%)

Answer: The 95% confidence interval is (19.4%, 20.6%)
