Reply To: Seeing Stars

Yes, you are.

My curve is graphing the relationship between the extent to which you see stars, and how good your marriage is. Thus, if you are a 1 on the seeing stars axis, you will only be a 1 on the marriage happiness axis. (how do I make the negative work? it seems like negative stars would still make positive happiness in my graph).

You are correct that this is different from how my original post was posed, which was that seeing stars is a binary decision and then happy marriage correlates with seeing stars. If so, I need to make a new graph.

x is how much stars you are seeing.

y is happy marriage.

the definition of seeing stars is 100

y = x – 100 (I’m not making it exponential because I’m not math sophisticated enough)
