Answer:


P=8.869

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mean
\=x =38

Variance
\sigma=52

Sample size
n=16


X=(33, 43)

Generally the equation for Chebyshev's Rule is mathematically given by


A=(1-(1)/(k^2))*100\%

Where


k=(\=x-\mu)/((\sigma)/(\sqrt n))}}


k=(43-38)/((52)/(\sqrt 16))}}


k=2.77

Therefore

Probability


P=(1-(1)/(2.77^2))


P=8.869
