(a) 6 hours and 45 minutes
(b) 2 hours and 35 minutes
(c) 2 hours and 40 minutes
(d) 3 hours and 20 minutes
The general formula for the margin of error would be:
z * √[p (1-p) ÷ n]
where:
z = values for selected confidence level
p = sample proportion
n = sample size
Since the confidence level is not given, we can only solve for the
<span>√[p (1-p) ÷ n] part.
</span>
p = 44/70
n = 70
√[44/70 (1 - (44/70) ÷ 70]
√[0.6286 (0.3714)] ÷ 70
√0.2335 ÷ 70
√0.0033357 = 0.05775 or 0.058 Choice B.
