    To find the margin of error, multiply the z-score by the standard deviation, then divide by the square root of the sample size.

    The z*-score for a 90% confidence level is 1.645. The margin of error is 0.20.

    The confidence interval is 48.3 to 48.7.

    48.8 is not within the confidence interval.
