Implementing Analytics Solutions Using Microsoft Fabric — Question 103

You have a Fabric tenant that contains customer churn data stored as Parquet files in OneLake. The data contains details about customer demographics and product usage.

You create a Fabric notebook to read the data into a Spark DataFrame. You then create column charts in the notebook that show the distribution of retained customers as compared to lost customers based on geography, the number of products purchased, age, and customer tenure.

Which type of analytics are you performing?

Answer options

• A. diagnostic
• B. descriptive
• C. prescriptive
• D. predictive

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, descriptive analytics, as you are summarizing historical data to provide insights into customer retention and loss. Options A, C, and D do not apply because diagnostic analytics focuses on understanding why events happened, prescriptive analytics suggests actions to take, and predictive analytics forecasts future outcomes based on current data.
