A medical engineering company creates x-ray machines. The machines the company sold in 1995 were expected to last six years before breaking. To test how long the machines actually lasted, the company took a simple random sample of six machines. The company got the following results (in years) for how long the x-ray machines lasted: 8, 6, 7, 11, 3, 16. Assume the distribution of the longevity of x-ray machines is normally distributed. The 95% confidence interval for the average longevity of x-ray machines is between
