Answer: The unintended, undesirable effect is morally tolerable if it brings a good result.
Explanation: The doctrine (or principle) of double effect is often invoked to explain the permissibility of an action that causes a serious harm.
According to the principle of double effect, sometimes it is permissible to cause a harm as a side effect (or “double effect”) of bringing about a good result even though it would not be permissible to cause such a harm as a means to bringing about the same good end.
Is there any specific context?
Generally during the times of violence, no one can escape it. It is true that there are gender differences (women are often raped, men more often murdered) but in war both genders (and children) always suffer.
Given Information:
Mean = μ = 74
Standard deviation = σ = 8
Mary's score = x = 80
Bob’s score = z = +1.50
Sue’s score = above the mean by 10 points
Required Information:
If the students are placed in order from smallest score to largest score, what is the correct order?
Answer:
Mary = 80, Sue = 84, Bob = 86
Explanation:
Bob's score:
z = (x - μ)/σ
x - μ = zσ
x = zσ + μ
x = 1.50*8 + 74
x = 12 + 74
x = 86
Sue's score:
x = u + 10
x = 74 + 10
x = 84
Mary's score:
x = 80
From the smallest score to largest score
Mary = 80, Sue = 84, Bob = 86
