Assume you are using k-NN to classify a new observation based on an existing dataset. In the existing dataset, the observations are classified as red or green; stated different, the class variable has 2 classes: red or green (the graph below shows the red and green points in your dataset). You have a new observation (represented by X in the graph below) and you need to classify it as either green or red. The table below reports the Euclidian distances between the new point, X, and the existing ones. Answer the next three questions. Euclidian X – A 0.8 X – B 1.45 X – C 1.75 X – D 1.3 X – E 0.4 X – F 0.9 X – G 0.65
