I vaguely recall that attributes sampling deals with yes/no questions, so that makes me think the first blank is attributes sampling.

I'm leaning towards option B, but I keep mixing up the definitions of attributes and variables sampling.

I remember practicing a question similar to this where we had to differentiate between attributes and variables sampling. I think this is the same concept.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of the question. Is it asking about the ideal state, or just describing common approaches? I'll need to re-read it a few times.

This seems like a straightforward question about the types of rate schedules needed for financial planning. I think I can handle this one.

Okay, the four original Balanced Scorecard perspectives were financial, customer, internal business, and learning and growth. I remember those clearly from the lecture, so I'm feeling good about this question.

Okay, let's see. I know the maxOccurs attribute is important for avoiding data-centric threats, and the xsd:any element can be risky. I think the xsd:restriction element is also relevant here.
