OPTIONS:
No, because she could receive as low as 14% of the vote.
No, because she could receive as low as 49% of the vote.
Yes, because she could receive as much as 77% of the vote.
Yes, because the poll stated that she will win with 63% of the vote.
Answer:
No, because she could receive as low as 49% of the vote.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Poll suggestion = 63%
Margin of Error (E) = 14%
This means that; the range or interval in which the vote obtained could fall would be ;
Poll suggestion ± margin of Error
63% ± 14%
Lower bound attainable = (63% - 14%) = 49%
Upper bound attainable = (63% + 14%) = 77%
Since, winning actually requires obtaining atleast half of the votes (that is 50%) ; and suggested poll suggested votes could fall as low as 49% ; then Janice can't be so confident of victory.
