Responding to the following prompts:

-Summarize the information presented in these two bar graphs.
-Some people make the argument that older U.S. adults will never approve of marriage between same-sex partners. To what extent does this data support that argument? Explain.
-Recall that the Obergefell vs Hodges Supreme Court decision in 2015 made same sex marriage legal in the US, and 37 states had already legalized same-sex marriage by then. Would you have predicted that outcome based on the data presented above? Explain. [NOTE: You should explore the more detailed data in the post on People Press, at the source linked above.]
