Answer to Question 1

Two box plots, one depicting men's and one depicting women's salaries, side by side would visually show differences between minimum, maximum, and median values. Differences or similarities of variability could also be easily recognized, as would any outliers in either direction. ACME, Inc. could use this depiction to correct gender bias, if it existed, with regard to salary, or the company could publish the comparative analysis using box plots to demonstrate no gender bias exists, if it doesn't.

Answer to Question 2

Chebyshev's Theorem requires an input value of at least 2, since an input of 1 would cause a divide by 0 error.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
