In a sample of 1000 randomly selected consumers who had opportunities to send in a rebate claim form after purchasing a product,

260 of these people said they never did so. Reasons cited for their behavior included too many steps in the process, amount too small, missed deadline, fear of being placed on a mailing list, lost receipt, and doubts about receiving the money. Calculate an upper confidence bound at the 95% confidence level for the true proportion of such consumers who never apply for a rebate. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answer: 0.2872

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In a sample of 1000 randomly selected consumers who had opportunities to send in a rebate claim form after purchasing a product, 260 of these people said they never did so.

i.e. n= 1000 and x= 260

⇒ Sample proportion : \hat{p}=\dfrac{260}{1000}=0.26

z-value for 95% confidence interval : z_c=1.960

Now, an upper confidence bound at the 95% confidence level for the true proportion of such consumers who never apply for a rebate. :-

\hat{p}+ z_c\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

=0.26+ (1.96)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.26(1-0.26)}{1000}}

=0.26+ (1.96)(0.01387)=0.26+0.0271852=0.2871852\approx0.2872

∴ An upper confidence bound at the 95% confidence level for the true proportion of such consumers who never apply for a rebate : 0.2872

We can separate the shape into a rectangle and a square
the area of the rectangle :

the area of the square:
{6}^{2}  = 36
the area of the whole shape:
36 + 36 = 72

Find the difference.<br><br> 6rs – (-2rs)
lilavasa [31]
There is no difference, 6rs-(-2rs) if you get rid of the parenthesis you are left with 6rs- -2rs and two negatives make a positive therefore the answer will become 8rs... I hope this helps :)
