Question 3

What are the four ways that the affine transformation may alter a dataset to match it up with another dataset?

Accepted Answer

The affine transformation will change the coordinates (and projection)of one dataset to match up with the coordinates (and projection of a second).It can do this by rotating (turning),skewing (slanting),scaling (altering the scale of the dataset),and translating (altering the placement of the dataset)the data.

C) The highest possible value for RMSE 
D) An RMSE value of exactly (or as close as possible)to 1
