The North Mall Theater averaged 720 patrons per day with a variance of 100, while the South Mall Theater averaged 700 patrons per day with a variance of 96 . Develop an interval estimate for the difference between the average daily attendances at the two theaters. Use a confidence coefficient of .95.
