Given:
The product of a particular number is 65.
Second value is given by the sum of 8 and the original number.
To find:
The unknown number.
Solution:
Let x be the unknown number.
Then, second number = x+8
The product of a particular number is 65.
Splitting the middle term, we get
Using zero product property, we get
and 
and 
So, the unknown number is either 5 or -13.
Therefore, the correct option is B.
Answer:
Between 38.42 and 49.1.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean of 43.76, standard deviation of 2.67.
Between what two values will approximately 95% of the amounts be?
By the Empirical Rule, within 2 standard deviations of the mean. So
43.76 - 2*2.67 = 38.42
43.76 + 2*2.67 = 49.1
Between 38.42 and 49.1.
12 red counters
7 more red counters than yellow counters
12 - 7 = 5 yellow counters
Dara has 5 yellow counters.
