Refer to the exhibit from SAS Visual Statistics:

What can be concluded from the lift plot shown in the exhibit?
- A . The 20% of cases with the highest predicted probability of the modeled event level is expected to capture 2.75 times as many events as a random sample of the same size.
- B . The response rate for the best 20% is predicted to increase 5 times under the fitted model.
- C . The 20% of cases with the lowest predicted probability of the modeled event level is predicted to capture 2.75 times as many events as a random sample of 20%.
- D . The response rate for the best 20% is predicted to be 2.75 times greater than the sample fitted in the model.
How can you export score code generated by SAS Visual Statistics for a trained model?

- B . Estimating probabilities of categorical outcomes
- C . Assuming a linear relationship between predictors and response
- D . Using the logit link function to model the probability of an event
Refer to the following exhibit:

After creating a decision tree in SAS Visual Statistics, what is the value in deriving a Leaf ID Variable?
- A . Use the leaf ID data item in filters in other types of visualizations.
- B . Use the leaf ID to rank order by posterior probabilities.
- C . Use the leaf ID to identify clusters.
- D . Use the leaf ID to identify the most important variables.
