From Chebyshev's inequality, \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"P%28abs%28X+-+mu%29+%3C=+nd%29+%3E=+1-1%2Fn%5E2%29\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "==> \"P%28abs%28X+-+101%29+%3C=+14n%29+%3E=+1-1%2Fn%5E2%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Letting n = 2, we get\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"P%28abs%28X+-+101%29+%3C=+28%29+%3E=+1-1%2F2%5E2+=+1-1%2F4+=+3%2F4\",\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "which is what is needed by the problem.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "==> the interval is \"abs%28X+-+101%29+%3C=+28\", or \"-28+%3C=+X+-+101+%3C=+28\", or \"73+%3C=+X+%3C=+128\".
\n" ); document.write( "
