Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals — Question 150

You are developing a system to predict the prices of insurance for drivers in the United Kingdom.

You need to minimize bias in the system.

What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Remove information about protected characteristics from the data before sampling.
• B. Take a training sample that is representative of the population in the United Kingdom.
• C. Create a training dataset that uses data from global insurers.
• D. Take a completely random training sample.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Option B is correct because using a representative sample ensures that all demographics are adequately reflected, which helps minimize bias. Option A could lead to the exclusion of important characteristics that are relevant to insurance pricing. Option C may not accurately represent the UK population, and Option D lacks structure, risking the introduction of randomness that could increase bias.
