Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't this answerable from a quick google search ?

I've done such a search and found:

"The inequality has great utility because it can be applied to any probability distribution in which the mean and variance are defined"

This came from Wikipedia : Link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev%27s_inequality
