(b) Find the estimate of the difference between the proportion of teen gamers who played on game consoles and the proportion of adults who played on these devices.
(c) Is the large-sample confidence interval for the difference in two proportions appropriate to use in this setting? Explain your answer.
(d) Find the 95% confidence interval for the difference.
(e) Convert your estimated difference and confidence interval to percents.
(f) The adult survey was conducted between October and December 2008, whereas the teen survey was conducted between November 2007 and February 2008. Do you think that this difference should have any effect on the interpretation of the results? Be sure to explain your answer.
