A group of researchers developed a 95% z confidence interval for the mean body mass index (BMI) of women aged 20 to 29 years, based on a national random sample of 657 such women. They assumed that the population standard deviation was known to be o = 7.5. In fact, the sample data had mean BMI x = 26.9 and standard deviation s = 7.67. What is the 95% t confidence interval for the mean BMI of all young women? (Round your answers to three decimal places.)
