Answer:

Explanation:

The confidence interval (58.6%, 76.4%) can be expressed in the form of p ± ME, where p is the point estimate and ME is the margin of error.

To find the point estimate, we take the average of the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval:

p = (58.6% + 76.4%) / 2 = 67.5%

The margin of error (ME) is half the width of the confidence interval:

ME = (76.4% - 58.6%) / 2 = 8.9%

Therefore, the confidence interval (58.6%, 76.4%) can be expressed as p ± ME, or 67.5% ± 8.9%.
