I'm self studying the book Introduction to Applied Linear Algebra – Vectors, Matrices, and Least Squares



In page 48, the author write: "It says,for example, that no more than 1/25 = 4% of the entries of a vector can exceed its RMS value by more than a factor of 5."



I need more explain about it. Especially about why the factor is 5?

          According to Chebyshev's_inequality, the probability of a value to deviate more than $k=5$ standard deviations from the mean is at most $1/k^2$.



          When applied to vectors in your specific case, and following the book you cited, let $k$ be the number of elements of the vector $vec{x}=(x_1,ldots,x_n)$ such that $||x_i|| geq a > 0$.



          Hence $|vec{x}|^2 = sum x_i^2 geq k a^2 + (n - k) times 0$, which means that we have $k$ values larger than $a^2$ and the others $n-k$ values are at least zero.



          Since the root mean square value is $operatorname{rms}(vec{x}) = sqrt{frac{|vec{x}|^2}{n}}$, it follows that $operatorname{rms}(vec{x})^2 = frac{|vec{x}|^2}{n} geq frac {k a^2}{n}$.



          Therefore, we get the final expression that says



          $$frac {k}{n} leq left( frac{operatorname{rms}(vec{x})}{a} right) ^2$$



          So, following the example, where $a = 5 operatorname{rms}(vec{x})$, we have that $frac {k}{n} leq left( frac{1}{5} right) ^2 = 4 %$, so, the fraction of elements of the vector larger (in absolute value) than $5operatorname{rms}$ is at most $4%$.



          If we chose another number, say $a = 2 operatorname{rms}(vec{x})$, we would have that $frac {k}{n} leq left( frac{1}{2} right) ^2 = 25 %$.
