General AnatomyA random sample of 40 adults with no children under the age of 18 years results in a mean daily leisure time of 5.79 hours, with a standard deviation of 2.25 hours. A
random sample of 40 adults with children under the age of 18 results in a mean daily leisure time of 4.09 hours, with a standard deviation of 1.83 hours. Construct
and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the mean difference in leisure time between adults with no children and adults with children (₁-₂).
