1) Computerized support is used for organizational and managerial decisions that
are responses to external pressures and to take advantage of market opportunities.
CORRECT ANSWER: TRUE
Diff: 1 Page Ref: 32
2) During the early days of analytics, data was often obtained from the domain
experts using manual processes to build mathematical or knowledge-based models.
CORRECT ANSWER: TRUE
Diff: 2 Page Ref: 56
3) Computer applications have moved from transaction processing and monitoring
activities to problem analysis and decision support applications.
CORRECT ANSWER: TRUE
Diff: 1 Page Ref: 48
4) Business intelligence is a specific term that describes a variety of information
technology and data capturing focused system architectures.
CORRECT ANSWER: FALSE Diff: 2 Page Ref: 46
5) The growth in hardware, software, and network capacities were the core
contributors to the proliferation of decision support and analytics systems.
CORRECT ANSWER: FALSE
Diff: 2 Page Ref: 48

CORRECT ANSWER: FALSE
Diff: 3 Page Ref: 61
12) Many business users in the 1980s referred to their mainframes as "the black
