    99,7 % of all values will be in the interval (-2; 34)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Empirical Rule for the normal distribution with mean X, implies that the intervals:

    X ± σ will contain 68 % of all values

    X ± 2σ will contain 95 % of all values

    X ± 3σ will contain 99,7 % of all values

    Therefore in the interval X - 3σ; X + 3σ

    X - 3*6 = X - 18 = 16 - 18 = - 2

    And

    X + 3*6 = X + 18 = 16 + 18 = 34

    99,7 % of all values will be in the interval (-2; 34)
