Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

Analytics are divided into descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive. Descriptive addresses questions like what happened to our sales last month. The focus is on describing the past through reporting, data visualization, and dashboards. Predictive analytics address what will our sales likely be next month. Statistical models use past and current events to predict the future. Finally, prescriptive analytics addresses questions such as what needs to change to improve sales of our worst selling product. Simulation tools are often used to better understand relationships and dependencies among variables of interest.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
