Sec on 17 looks at error within the surveys. With these problems, we will read the results from a survey, then apply a margin
Resources
of error to the percentage (add and subtract the value). Finally, we will write a sentence about the results.

Example: A survey of Ivy Tech students shows that 78% of people will use quan ta ve reasoning a er this class finishes. If the
margin of error is ± 3.2%, find the 95% confidence interval and write a sentence about what this means.

Confidence interval is the margin of error added to the percentage, then subtracted to the percentage:

78 – 3.2 = 74.8 lower end 78 + 3.2 = 81.2 upper end 95% confidence interval = 74.8 % to 81.2 %

All sentences are the same. Each blank is replaced with the problem you are currently working on. For this ques on:

I am 95% confident that _______ to _______ % of people will _______________________________________________.
