Question 2

A team at Ledsham Apps holds a fifteen-minute meeting each morning where each person states what they did yesterday, what they will do today, and what is blocking them. What is the primary purpose of this meeting?

Answer

Because a small release cannot contain any bugs.

Question 4

Under deadline pressure, a team at Marchwiel Systems copies the same block of pricing logic into four different screens rather than writing it once. What is the long-term consequence of this decision?

The software will run four times more slowly.

Answer

The copied code will stop working after a fixed period.
