Answer
Senior Sally and Junior Jane are running for student council president, and the
election is next week. The latest poll shows that Senior Sally has 48% of the vote,
while Junior Jane has 45% of the vote. The news report, however, states that this
poll contains a 5% margin of error.
What does this mean for Senior Sally?
Senior Sally is predicted to have as much as 53% or as little as 43% of the vote.
Senior Sally will definitely win because the poll says she has 48% of the vote
which is more than Junior Jane.
Senior Sally will lose because the 5% margin drops her below Junior Jane
There will definitely have to be a runoff because in the poll they both have less
than 50% of the vote.
