A counselor records the number of disagreements (per session) among couples during group counseling sessions. If the number of d

isagreements is distributed normally as 4.4 ± 0.4 ( M ± SD) disagreements, then what proportion of couples disagree at least four times during each counseling session?

Answer:

P(X>4)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{4-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{4-4.4}{0.4})=P(z>-1)

And we can find this probability with the complement rule:

P(z>-1)=1-P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the disagreements of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(4.4,0.4)  

Where \mu=4.4 and \sigma=0.4

We are interested on this probability

P(X>4)

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X>4)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{4-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{4-4.4}{0.4})=P(z>-1)

And we can find this probability with the complement rule:

P(z>-1)=1-P(z

In the function y=5x^2-2, what effect does the number 5 have on the graph, as compared to the graph of y=x^2?
allochka39001 [22]

General Idea:

The Rules for Transformations of Functions are given below:

If f(x) is the original function, a > 0 and c > 0; Then

f(x)+k \; \; shift \; f(x) \; UPWARD \; k \; units\\\\f(x)-k \; \; shift \; f(x) \; DOWNWARD \; k \; units\\\\f(x+h) \; \; shift \; f(x) \; LEFT \; h \; units\\\\f(x-h) \; \; shift \; f(x) \; RIGHT \; h \; units\\\\-f(x) \; \; REFLECT \; f(x) \; in \; the \; x-axis\\\\f(-x) \; REFLECT \; f(x) \; in \; the \; y-axis\\\\a \cdot f(x), \; a>1 \; STRETCH \; f(x) \; vertically \; by \; a \; factor \; of \; a\\\\a \cdot f(x), \; 0

f(ax), \; a>1 \; SHRINK \; f(x) \; horizontally \; by \; a \; factor \; of \;\frac{1}{a}  .\\\\f(ax), \; 0

Applying the concept:

In the function y=5x^2-2, the effect that the number 5 have on the graph, as compared to the graph of y=x^2 is given below:

C.it stretches the graph vertically by a factor of 5

Answer:

11.34x + 9.45y = 141.75

y = (141.75 - 11.34x)/9.45

y = -1.2x + 15
