Mika is a local farmer who is interested in how often residents in her town go to a farmer's market each month. She surveys 124 families and finds that, on average, those families visit a farmers' market 4.2 times per month with a sample standard deviation of 1.3. If Mika wants to be 99% confident (z=2.58) using this sample, what should her margin of error be and what does it mean?

i found this pictur about how to solve

∞ this is your sign

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
