Answer: Yes. The data provides convincing evidence.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a random sample of 40 teenagers, 18 enjoy reading for fun. The percentage of teenagers who enjoy reading for fun will be:
= 18/40 × 100
= 45%
In a random sample of 40 adults, 12 enjoy reading for fun. The percentage of adults who enjoy will be:
= 12/40 × 100
= 30%
Therefore, the proportion of adults who enjoy reading for fun is less than that of teenagers. Therefore, the data provides convincing evidence.
