Question

The high temperatures (in degrees Fahrenheit) of a random sample of 6 small towns are:

99.6
97.8
96.6
97.2
97.5
99.7



Assume high temperatures are normally distributed. Based on this data, find the 95% confidence interval of the mean high temperature of towns. Enter your answer as an open-interval (i.e., parentheses) accurate to two decimal places (because the sample data are reported accurate to one decimal place).

95% C.I. = 

Answer should be obtained without any preliminary rounding. However, the critical value may be rounded to 3 decimal places.
