gladu [14]

5 + 8s = 15 + 3s
8s - 3s = 15 - 5
5s = 10
s = 10/5
s = 2 <=== they will charge the same at 2 sq ft

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean for the sample
