Answer to Question 1

Answer: D
Explanation: The regret value shows the maximum amount that Sam can lose by making the wrong choice. In this case, the difference between the CA3 value of 21 and the CA3 value of 4 gives the maximum regret of 17 for S4, meaning the most that could have been lost had Sam not chosen S4 would have been 17 thousand dollars.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: FALSE
