Selected Answer: B

No Scaling up to the Premium V2 pricing tier would increase the cost, not minimize it. The Premium V2 tier is more expensive than the Basic and Standard tiers. Since the goal is to enable schedule-based autoscaling while minimizing costs, the Standard tier would be more cost-effective, as it supports autoscaling at a lower price point than the Premium tiers.

Switching to Standard would be a better solution in order to minimize costs.

No, the solution does not meet the goal. Scaling up to the Premium V2 pricing tier will provide more features and better performance, but it will not minimize the cost. In fact, the Premium V2 tier is more expensive than the Basic tier. To enable schedule-based autoscaling and minimize costs, you should consider scaling up to the Standard tier, which supports autoscaling features and is more cost-effective than the Premium V2 tie

Given answer is correct. Auto-scaling is only supported from Standard App Service Plans and onwards.

sure, but the goal is also to minimize the costs so as you said it starts from standard onwards. So there's a possibility to keep costs lower. On this basis I'd say NO
