a probability distribution has a mean of 28 and a standard deviation of 4. use chebychev's inequality to estimate the probability that an outcome of the experiment lies between 20 and 36.\

Respuesta :

The Probability P [tex](20\leq x\leq 36)[/tex] = 0.7500

What is probability ?

The ratio of good outcomes to all possible outcomes of an event is known as the probability. The number of positive results for an experiment with 'n' outcomes can be represented by the symbol x. The probability of an occurrence may be calculated using the following formula.

Probability(Event) = Positive Results/Total Results = x/n

Given : the mean μ = 28

standard deviation σ = 4

small value = 20 and big value = 36

by chebychev's inequality,

μ - kσ = small value

28-k(4) = 20

k = 2

also,

μ + kσ = big value

28 + k(4) = 36

k = 2

The Probability P [tex](20\leq x\leq 36)[/tex] = [tex]1-1/k^{2}[/tex]

[tex]= 1-1/2^{2} \\=3/4\\=0.7500[/tex]
