For each of parts (a) through (d), indicate whether we would generally expect the performance of a flexible statistical learning

method to be better or worse than an inflexible method. Justify your answer.a. The sample size n is extremely large, and the number of predictors p is small. b. The number of predictors p is extremely large, and the number of observations n is small. c. The relationship between the predictors and response is highly non-linear. d. The variance of the error terms, i.e. Var(epsilon), is extremely high.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, note that a flexible statistical learning method refers to using models that take into account agree difference in the observed data set, and are thus adjustable. While the inflexible method usually involves a model that has no regard to the kind of data set.

a) The sample size n is extremely large, and the number of predictors p is small. (BETTER)

In this case since the sample size is extremely large a flexible model is a best fit.

b) The number of predictors p is extremely large, and the number of observations n is small. (WORSE)

In such case overfiting the data is more likely because of of the small observations.

c) The relationship between the predictors and response is highly non-linear. (BETTER)

The flexible method would be a better fit.

d) The variance of the error terms, i.e. σ2=Var(ϵ), is extremely high. (WORSE)

In such case, using a flexible model is a best fit for the error terms because it can be adjusted.

How to do improper fractions with 3.8 repeating
vivado [14]
3.88888=3.88888/1=38.8888888

so lets ssay our repeating decimal = a fraction x
x=3.888 is true
multiply by 10
10x=38.8888
now subtract fir frist eqation from second
10x-x=38.8888-3.888888
9x=35
divide both sides by 9
x=35/9
x=3 and 7/9

anser is 3.88=3 and 7/9

One pattern believe fabric sells for $15 for every 2 yards, and another sells for 37.50 every 5 yards do these fabrics have the
Elenna [48]
We need to find out how much is worth one yard in both fabrics, so we divide $15.00 by 2 and $37.50 by 5:

$15.00 ÷ 2 = $7.50 per yard
$37.50 ÷ 5 = $7.50 per yard

As both prices per yard are the same, the answer is: <span>Yes, these fabrics have the same unit cost.</span>

Can someone help me with this 2 step eqaution
Snowcat [4.5K]
The answer is:  " 40 books " .
____________________________________________
Explanation:
____________________________________________
Let "x" equal the number of books that Jill started with.  Solve for "x" :
____________________________________________
         x – (1/2)x  + 16 = 36 ;

1x – (1/2)) = (1/2)x ; 

(1/2)x + 16 = 36 ; 

Subtract "16" from EACH SIDE of the equation:

(1/2)x + 16 – 16 = 36 – 16  ; 

(1/2)x = 20 ; 

Multiply each side of the equation by "2" ; 

2*(1/2)x = 20 * 2 ; 

to get:  x = 40 . 
____________________________________________
The answer is:  " 40 books " .
