Selected Answer: A

A is correct. As per BABOK v3 3.1.2, The business analysis approach may be defined by a methodology or by organizational standards. In some organizations, elements of the business analysis approach may be standardized and formalized into a repeatable business analysis process which can be leveraged for each effort.
