Answer:

a. About 64

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 70

Standard deviation = 5

Use the empirical rule to determine the number of students who scored less than 65 or more than 75?

65 = 70 - 5

So 65 is one standard deviation below the mean

75 = 70 + 5

So 75 is one standard deviation above the mean.

By the Empirical Rule, 68% of the students scored between 65 and 75. The other 100-68 = 32% scored less than 65 or more than 75.

Out of 200, that is

0.32*200 = 64

So the correct answer is:

a. About 64
