The weekly salaries of sociologists in the United States are normally distributed and have a known population standard deviation
of 425 dollars and an unknown population mean. A random sample of 22 sociologists is taken and gives a sample mean of 1520 dollars. Find the margin of error for the confidence interval for the population mean with a 98% confidence level.
