From a sample with n=20​, the mean number of televisions per household is 2 with a standard deviation of 1 television. Using​ Chebychev's Theorem, determine at least how many of the households have between 0 and 4 televisions. At least nothing of the households have between 0 and 4 televisions.

Answer:

At least 15 households have between 0 and 4 televisions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Chebychev's Theorem:

P(|X-μ|>kσ)≤[tex]\frac{1}{k^2}[/tex]

μ= mean

σ= standard deviation

k= number of typical deviations

It is also expressed as:

P(μ-kσ<X<μ+kσ)≥[tex]1-\frac{1}{k^2}[/tex]

Using​ Chebychev's Theorem, we determine:

P(0<X<4)

μ-kσ=0 ⇒ 2-k·1=0 ⇒k=2

μ+kσ=4 ⇒ 2+k·1=4 ⇒k=2

P(0<X<4)=[tex]1-\frac{1}{2^2}[/tex]=0.75

For a sample n=20,

0.75×20=15

At least 15 households have between 0 and 4 televisions.
