Question

states that for any set of data, the proportion of values that lie within k standard deviations (k > 1) of the mean is at least 1 - 1/k². A) Prime number theorem B) Bertrand's postulate C) Oppermann's conjecture D) Chebyshev's theorem

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This is known as Chebyshev's theorem, which states that for any data set (with finite mean and standard deviation), at least (1 - 1/k^2) fraction of the data lie within k standard deviations of the mean.
