 a. The influence diagram for the entire problem is build first and then separate portions are clustered to form separate models.
  b. The influence diagram for all the model parts at the same level are built in parallel to reduce the likelihood of error.
  c. The influence diagram is reverse engineered the diagram is developed in the opposite direction starting with the model output.
  d. The influence diagram for a portion of the problem is built first and then expanded until the total problem is conceptually modeled.

Question 2

Answer to Question 1

d
RATIONALE: The influence diagram for a portion of the problem is build first and then expanded until the total problem is conceptually modeled.

Answer to Question 2

0.5

RATIONALE: Total memberships = 10,000
Packages of A and B = 1,500
Packages of A, B, and C = 750

The association rule If A and B are purchased, then C is also purchased has a support of 750 out of 1500 sales. The confidence level = total support/total memberships which is 750/1,500 = 50
