3. Applying Chebyshev's Inequality. Chebyshev's inequality states that no more than of the distribution's values can be more than standard deviations away from the mean, for any . In this exercise, you'll use Chebyshev's inequality to estimate the probability that a random variable deviates from its mean by more than 5 standard deviations.
You are given the formula , where is the mean and is the standard deviation.
If the standard deviation of an asset's return is 10\%, what is the maximum probability of observing a return that is 20\% above or below the mean?
