The resting heart rates for 80 women aged 46–55 in a simple random sample are normally distributed, with a mean of 71 beats per minute and a standard deviation of 6 beats per minute. Assuming a 90% confidence level (90% confidence level = z-score of 1.645), what is the margin of error for the population mean?Remember, the margin of error, ME, can be determined using the formula .
