Answer

$x ̅=139.2$ $E=13.4$

Work Step by Step

The point of estimate, $x ̅$, lies in the center of the confidennce interval: $\frac{125.8+152.6}{2}=139.2$ The margin of error, $E$, is the difference between the upper bound and the point estimate (or between the point estimate and the lower bound): $152.6-139.2=139.2-125.8=13.4$
