Original question and givens

Use mode=single_width_confusion, complete model={"nodes":[0,1,10],"values":[7,15,25]}. Give (mode, individual_widths, correct_value, wrong_single_width_value, single_width_method_claim, boundary).

  • G001 — Use mode=single_width_confusion, complete model={"nodes":[0,1,10],"values":[7,15,25]}. Give (mode, individual_widths, correct_value, wrong_single_width_value, single_width_method_claim, boundary).

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.
