### Confidence Interval Expression

**Problem Statement:**

Express the confidence interval \((505.3, 720.3)\) in the format \( \bar{x} \pm ME \).

**Solution Requirements:**

- Find \(\bar{x}\), the sample mean.
- Determine \(ME\), the margin of error.

**Calculation Steps:**

1. **Calculate the Sample Mean \(\bar{x}\):**

   \[
   \bar{x} = \frac{505.3 + 720.3}{2} = 612.8
   \]

2. **Calculate the Margin of Error \(ME\):**

   \[
   ME = \frac{720.3 - 505.3}{2} = 107.5
   \]

3. **Express the Confidence Interval:**

   \( \bar{x} \pm ME = 612.8 \pm 107.5 \)

**Input Format:**

- Two text boxes are provided for entering the values of \(\bar{x}\) and \(ME\).
- A "Submit Question" button is included to submit your inputs.

Ensure to double-check the calculations before submitting your answer.
