Question: In the computing industry the average age of professional employees tends to be younger than in many other business professions. Suppose the average age of a professional employed by a particular computer firm is 28 with a standard deviation of 6 years. A histogram of professional employee ages with this firm reveals that the data are not normally distributed but rather are amassed in the 20s and that few workers are over 40. Apply Chebyshev's theorem to determine within what range of ages would at least 80% of the workers' ages fall.
