Which of the following approaches is a good way to proceed with the influence diagram building for a problem?
 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

Platinum Gym has 10,000 gyms members out of which 1500 memberships included Unlimited Fitness Training and use of the tanning salon, and out of which 750 included Unlimited Hydromassage. If the Fitness Training are considered A, the use of the tanning salon are considered B, and the Hydromassage are considered C, then the associate rule for these sales become If A and B are purchased, then C is also purchased.

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

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.
