Problem

A student's score on a particular calculus final is a random variable with values of [0,100][0, 100], mean 70, and variance 25. (a) Find a lower bound for the probability that the student's score will fall between 65 and 75. (b) If 100 students take the final, find a lower bound for the probability that the class average will fall between 65 and 75.
