Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Given that average or mean score on a driving exam by a group of driver's education students is 80 ​points, and standard deviation 3 points.

We are asked to apply Chebychev's theorem for this.

This theorem states that if x is an integrable random variable with mean = mu and std dev = sigma then


P(|X-\mu |>= k\sigma )<= {\frac {1}{k^{2}}}.

Substitute our values here.

P(|x-80|>=2(3)|<= 1/4

|x-80|>=6 mean

x is eithre less than 80-6 or greater than 80+6

i.e. probability for driving educated students getting scores not between

74 and 86 is less than 0.25

Using chebyshev's theorem, the proportion of the samples which falls within 2 standard deviation from the mean is 75%

Recall :

  • 1 - (1/k²)

For k = 2

The percentage of observations which falls within 2 standard deviations from the mean is :

1 - (1/2²)

1 - 1/4 = 0.75

Hence, (0.75 × 100%) = 75% of the distribution falls within 2 standard deviation from the mean.
