Answer:

Margin of Error = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using this formula Z (s/√n)

Where

S = 1.8----------------------------- Standard Deviation

n = 36 ----------------------------------Number of observation

Z = 1.645 ------------------------------The chosen Z-value from the confidence table below

Confidence Interval || Z

80%. || 1.282

85% || 1.440

90%. || 1.645

95%. || 1.960

99%. || 2.576

99.5% || 2.807

99.9%. || 3.291

Substituting these values in the formula

Margin of Error = 1.645 * (1.8/√36)

Margin of Error = 1.645 * (1.8/6)

Margin of Error = 1.645 * 0.3

Margin of Error = 0.4935

Margin of Error = 0.5 (Approximated)

Lunna [17]

Answer:

They intersect when the Strike king is at (9,15.75) and Thunder Alley is at (7, 15.75). But only the X axes intersect. The X and Y axes intersect at (0,0) that's where they start and that is where they meet. Its a proportional relationship because their ratios are equivalent. It represents the constant of proportionality.
