A 95% confidence interval for the difference in these proportions p1 - p2 (where proportion 1 is proportion happy in 2016 and proportion 2 is the proportion happy in 2017) is (-0.06, 0.02). Interpret this confidence interval. Does the interval contain 0? What does this tell us about happiness among American in 2016 and 2017?
