Answer:

0.22

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample given is 500, so use z-score for the critical value

Given 95% confidence interval;

∝=100-95 =5% =0.05

∝/2 = 0.05/2 =0.025 ----because you are interested with one tail area

1-0.025= 0.975 -----area to the left

proceed to z-table to read 0.975 = 1.96 as the critical value

standard deviation from the question is 2.5 but because this is a sample then;

standard error for the mean is= standard deviation/√sample= 2.5/√500

=0.1118

Margin of error=1.96*0.1118 =0.2191
