February 26, 2018 at 8:18 am #438992I am puzzled as to who marked your test and why therefore they have not told you what was wrong!
Q1 (a) is correct. (d) is not correct – it does not discourage innovation. (b) is correct – it is a planned approach.
Q2 (b) and (c) are correct, and so I do not know why it was marked wrong.
Q3 (b) is correct – again I have no idea why it should have been marked wrong.
