- Electronic Spreadsheet Applications Compare What-If Analysis using Trial and Error and Goal Seek to the given scenario: Let's say a student is enrolled in an online class at a learning institution for a semester. His overall average grade stands at 43% in the course (Term Grade is 45%, Midterm Grade is 65%, Class Participation is 62% and Final Exam is 0%). Unfortunately, he missed his Final Exam and was given 0%. However, he has the opportunity to redo his Final Exam and needs at least an overall average of 60% to pass the course. How can you use Trial and Error and Goal Seek to find out what is the lowest grade he needs on the Final Exam to pass the class? Which method worked best for you and why?arrow_forwardQUANTIFICATION True or False (FOR SOME x) (FOR SOME y), with x and y as integers: x^2 + y = x.arrow_forwardSuppose that a flaw in a certain computer chip installed in computers was discovered that could result in a wrong answer when performing a division. The manufacturer initially claimed that the chance of any particular division being incorrect was only 1 in 15 billion, so that it would take thousands of years before a typical user encountered a mistake. However, statisticians are not typical users; some modern statistical techniques are so computationally intensive that a billion divisions over a short time period is not outside the realm of possibility. Assuming that the 1 in 15 billion figure is correct and that results of different divisions are independent of one another, what is the probability that at least one error occurs in one billion divisions with this chip? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)arrow_forward

We want to create a hip X-Ray deformity prediction model. 100 individuals have 640 frontal X-rays. Three orthopedic physicians label the photos as positive or negative for hip deformity.

Q1: Suppose you are working on weather prediction, and use a learning algorithm to predict tomorrow's temperature (in degrees Centigrade/Fahrenheit). Would you treat this as a classification or a regression problem? Q2: Suppose you are working on stock market prediction. You would like to predict whether or not a certain company will declare bankruptcy within the next 7 days (by training on data of similar companies that had previously been at risk of bankruptcy).
