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

The equation of the line in this graph is<br>y= ____ x+____ .<br>​
Alexxx [7]
The equation of the line in this graph is y = 3/2x + 3.

Explanation:

In slope intercept form equations, the initial value is where everything begins. In this equation, that would be at the point (0,3). From there, because it is going up toward the right side, there is a positive slope. The formula for slope is rise over run, so to get our slope, we have to go up 3 units and over 2 units.
