The confidence interval is
We first find p, our sample proportion. 118/200 = 0.59.
Next we find the z-score associated with this level of confidence:
Convert 98% to a decimal: 98% = 98/100 = 0.98
Subtract from 1: 1-0.98 = 0.02
Divide by 2: 0.02/2 = 0.01
Subtract from 1: 1-0.01 = 0.99
Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that this value is associated with a z-score of 2.33.
The margin of error (ME) is given by
This gives us the confidence interval

Answer:
1) Solutions are x = 3 and x = 5/3
2) Solution are x ≤ 13/2 and x ≤ -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Given absolute inequality,
|3x-7| = 2
⇒ 3x - 7 = ± 2
⇒ 3x = 7 ± 2
2) l 2x-5 l ≤ 8
⇒ 2x-5 ≤ ±8
⇒ 2x ≤ 5 ± 8
