Ali surveys 100 randomly selected students in his high school and asks how many hours they spent studying last week, rounded to the nearest tenth. The sample mean of the data is 7.7 hours with a margin of error of ±0.8. What is a reasonable estimate for the number of hours a student at Ali’s high school studied last week?
