The results show that 807 of the Internet users agree with this statement, while 130 of the non-users agree.¹ Find a 90% confidence interval for the difference in the two proportions, p1 - PN, where p, is the proportion for the internet users who agree with the statement and p is the proportion for the non-internet users who agree with the statement. Round your answers to three decimal places.
