Question

1. The SSE (sum squared error) is a common measure of the quality of a cluster. It is the sum of the squares of the distances between each of the points of the cluster and the centroid. Compute the SSE for a cluster consisting of the following three points: (3,8), (7,5), and (2,2). Select the answer from the list below. a) 27 b) 30 c) 32 d) 23
