A random sample of 40 adults with no children under the age of 18 years results in a mean daily leisure time of 5.22 hours, with a standard deviation of 2.31 hours. A random sample of 40 adults with children under the age of 18 results in a mean daily leisure time of 4.29 hours, with a standard deviation of 1.58 hours. Construct and interpret a 90% confidence interval for the mean difference in leisure time between adults with no children and adults with children (u1 - u2)
What is the interpretation of this confidence interval?
A. There is 90% confidence that the difference of the means is in the interval. Conclude that there is insufficient evidence of a significant difference in the number of leisure hours
B. There is a 90% probability that the difference of the means is in the interval. Conclude that there is a significant difference in the number of leisure hours
C. There is 90% confidence that the difference of the means is in the interval. Conclude that there is a significant difference in the number of leisure hours
D. There is a 90% probability that the difference of the means is in the interval. Conclude that there is insufficient evidence of a significant difference in the number of leisure hours

Choice D
There is a 90% probability that the difference of the means is in the interval. Conclude that there is insufficient evidence of a significant difference in the number of leisure hours
