A recent poll pertaining to educational reforms involved 634 men and 820 women. The margin of error is 3.6% for the male sample and 3.2% for the female sample. Find the level of confidence for the male portion of the poll and for the female portion of the poll. HINT: See Example 7. (Round your answers to one decimal place.)
\n" ); document.write( " a) male %
\n" ); document.write( "ME = z*sqrt[pq/n]
