Nope, definitely not D. Reserve analysis is for budgeting, not duration.

I keep mixing up Analogous and Three-point estimating; I hope I remember that Analogous is the one that relies on historical info!

I practiced a similar question, and I feel like B, Organizational process asset, is more about documentation rather than estimating duration.

Analogous estimating is the way to go on this one. It's all about using comparable past projects to estimate the time needed for the current activities. Nailed it!
