The $N$-length vector of outputs is denoted by $\mathbf{y}$. The $N \times D$ data matrix is called $\mathbf{X}$. It's rows contain the tuples $\mathbf{x}_{n}$. Finally, the parameter vector of length $D$ is called $\mathbf{w}$. (All just like we defined in the course). Mark any of the following formulas that represent an equivalent way of solving this problem.
