2.Consider a population of 1,024 mutual funds that primarily invested in large companies. You determined that μ, the mean one-year total percentage return achieved by the funds, is 8.20 and that σ, the standard deviation, is 2.75.

According to the empirical rule, what percentages of these funds is expected to be
a. within +/-1 standard deviation?
b. within +/- 2 standard deviations of the mean?
c. According to Cebyshev’sule what percentage of these funds are expected to be within +/- 1, +/- 2 or +/- 3 standard deviations?
