Suppose that A E Mmxn(R) is a matrix of user ratings of various movies (on a scale of 1 to 5). Suppose we have computed the SVD of А, and decided to keep the 10 largest singular values as the most important determining factors for a user's choice of movie. Suppose also that a new user has joined the movie subscription service, and has rated some, but not all, of the movies. To predict how this new user will rate other movies (and thus, to determine which ones to recommend), all movies the user has not watched are assigned the average rating for that movie given by all users to form a new matrix A' E M(m+1)xn(R), and the rank-10 approximation of A' is computed from its SVD. The values in the approximation to A' are taken as the predicted ratings for the new user. Given this procedure, which of the following conclusions is most correct?
A college professor conducted a survey in order to assess how much money nursing majors spend on course material compared to all other majors. To do so, she selected a random sample of 34 students. Each student was classified as a nursing major or as a non-nursing major. They were then asked how much they spent on books and other materials required for their courses this semester. Here are parallel boxplots summarizing the responses: Based upon the boxplots, which of the following statements cannot be concluded? (A) The range of the distribution of the cost of course materials for nursing majors is about the same as that of non-nursing majors. (B) The maximum cost for non-nursing majors is greater than the median cost for nursing majors. (C) The variability of the cost of course materials for the middle 50% of nursing majors is greater than the variability of the middle 50% for non-nursing majors. (D) The median cost of course materials for nursing majors is over $300 more than…
