To solve this problem, we have to make use of the standard probability distribution tables for z test.

Since we are asked to find for the 72 percent level confidence, then this means we are to look for the value of z which gives (100-72) / 2 = 14% on both sides of the tail.

So at 14% tail on one side, the z value is approximately:

1.08

Answer:

± 1.08
