Not sure about that, isn't it expensive to manage multiple locations?

Wait, why would you put stock at customer facilities? Seems risky!

A central warehouse is more efficient, though.

Okay, let's see. I know the binomial distribution has two possible outcomes per trial, so statement A is true. I'll need to double-check the other options.

Hmm, this is a good one. I know TDD is important, but I want to make sure I understand the key benefits before selecting my answers. I'll need to think this through carefully.

Okay, I've got this. The key is to focus on the negative phrasing of the question. The gases were not something, so I need to find the option that best fits that.
