Chebyshev’s Theorem
Example: Marks of students
Suppose the marks of 100 students in a course had a mean of 70 and a
standard deviation of 5. We want to know the number of students
having test scores between 60 and 80.
60 and 80 are 2 standard deviations below and above the mean
respectively.
60 = 70 – 2(5) s
80 = 70 + 2(5)
Z = 75%

Chebyshev’s Theorem
Example: Marks of students
(58-72)/5 = -2.4
(82-70)/5 = 2.4

(1 – 1/ z2) = (1 – 1/(2.4)2 ) = 0.826 = 82.6%

Detecting Outliers
An outlier is an unusually small or unusually large value in a data set.
It might be:
an incorrectly recorded data value
a data value that was incorrectly included in the data set
a correctly recorded unusual data value that belongs in the data set

that one variable is the cause of the other.
