Answer:

14.34%

Explanation:

To find the percentage of returned surveys over the total we divide and then multiply:

(717/5000)*100= 14.34%

The response rate appears to be low because it is less than 50% (which would be 2500 return surveys). Some statistical studies agree that 30 is the minimum number of observations a study must have, but this number does not ensure statistically significant results.  

The problem with a very low response rate is that survey´s answers does not significant represent the study population characteristics and so we cannot make inferences, correlations or regressions that are statistically significant. In this case, the conclusions that scientists make about association between the left-handed population and right-handed population with the use of cell phone calls could be wrong or not represent the population characteristics, which means answers are not trustful.

12345 [234]

Answer:

Cheese is a complement for hamburgers. If the price of hamburgers rises, the quantity of hamburgers demanded will <em>fall</em>, which will lead to a <em>fall in the demand</em> for cheese, as cheese and hamburgers are complements to each other. A rise in price of a complementary good will lead to a fall in demand for the complementary good as well. Because of the change in <em>demand</em> for cheese the equilibrium quantity of cheese will <em>fall</em> and the equilibrium price for cheese will also <em>fall</em>, the demand for milk by cheese producers will <em>decline</em>, causing the equilibrium price of milk to <em>fall</em>. This means producers of butter face <em>lower</em> input prices and the supply of butter will <em>rise</em>. The resulting <em>decline</em> in the price of butter causes people to substitute <em>jam for butter</em>, so the demand for jam will <em>decline</em>.
