Microsoft AB-731 Online Questions & Answers

• Question 81:

  A finance department is estimating the cost of a generative AI reporting assistant.

  Which two factors are most directly related to usage cost and return on investment?

  A. The number of input and output tokens processed by the solution
  B. The business value gained from reducing manual reporting effort
  C. The color theme selected for the assistant interface
  D. The number of employees who have heard of generative AI
  E. The file extension used for exported reports
  A. The number of input and output tokens processed by the solution
  B. The business value gained from reducing manual reporting effort

  ---

  Explanation

  Usage cost for language models is commonly tied to input and output token volume, while ROI depends on measurable business value such as reduced manual reporting effort. Colors, awareness, and file extensions are not direct cost or

  ROI drivers.

• Question 82:

  HOTSPOT

  You are explaining the difference between common AI solution types to a business team. The team wants to understand which type of AI solution is designed to create new content.

  Select the answer that correctly completes the sentence.

  

  

  ---

  The answer image selects generative because the described AI solution creates new and original content. Predictive AI forecasts outcomes, and prescriptive AI recommends actions, but generation of new content is the generative AI pattern.

• Question 83:

  A company wants a chatbot to answer employee questions by using current HR policies stored in SharePoint. The company does not want to retrain the foundation model every time a policy changes.

  Which approach should the company use?

  A. Retrieval-augmented generation with grounding in approved HR content
  B. A new pretrained model trained only on HR documents
  C. A sentiment analysis model that classifies each employee question
  D. A batch translation workflow for the policy documents
  A. Retrieval-augmented generation with grounding in approved HR content

  ---

  Explanation

  Retrieval-augmented generation grounds chatbot responses in the current SharePoint policy content without retraining the base model. Training a new model, classifying sentiment, or translating policies would not solve current grounded question answering.

• Question 84:

  HOTSPOT

  An organization is adopting Microsoft Responsible AI principles. The organization wants to understand why responsible AI principles are important when designing, deploying, and using AI systems.

  Select the answer that correctly completes the sentence.

  

  

  ---

  The answer image selects promoting ethical and accountable AI use. Responsible AI principles are important because they guide trustworthy, fair, transparent, privacy-aware, and accountable design and deployment.

• Question 85:

  A company wants Copilot responses to reflect emails, chats, files, meetings, and other Microsoft 365 work data that users are allowed to access.

  Which two statements describe the role of Microsoft Graph in this scenario?

  A. Microsoft Graph provides access to Microsoft 365 data and relationships
  B. Azure Key Vault
  C. Microsoft Defender for Cloud
  D. Microsoft Graph access is subject to the user's existing permissions
  A. Microsoft Graph provides access to Microsoft 365 data and relationships
  D. Microsoft Graph access is subject to the user's existing permissions

  ---

  Explanation

  Microsoft Graph provides access to Microsoft 365 data and relationships, and Copilot access is constrained by the signed-in user permissions. Key Vault and Defender for Cloud are separate services, not the Graph role in this scenario.

• Question 86:

  HOTSPOT

  An organization plans to deploy Microsoft 365 Copilot. The organization wants to understand how Copilot can affect existing data governance and data risk management practices.

  For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No.

  NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  

  

  ---

  The answer image should be Yes, No, and Yes. Copilot can amplify existing governance gaps, it does not automatically reduce data management costs, and it can help IT teams identify and manage data risks when paired with governance practices.

• Question 87:

  Your company is deploying Microsoft 365 Copilot.

  The deployment must provide users with access to the Researcher agent to search across data in Microsoft SharePoint.

  You need to recommend a licensing plan for the solution.

  What should you recommend?

  A. a Microsoft 365 Copilot per-user add-on license
  B. pay-as-you-go
  C. a Microsoft 365 subscription entitlement
  D. a usage-based consumption license in Azure
  A. a Microsoft 365 Copilot per-user add-on license

  ---

  Explanation

  The Researcher agent is part of the Microsoft 365 Copilot experience, so users need a Microsoft 365 Copilot per-user add-on license. A base subscription or generic usage-based Azure consumption does not provide that agent across work data.

• Question 88:

  HOTSPOT

  You are designing prompts for a generative AI solution. The prompts must include clear instructions, relevant context, and examples that help the model produce useful responses.

  For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No.

  NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  

  

  ---

  The answer image selects accuracy and relevance of AI-generated responses. Better prompts provide context, examples, and constraints that make generated responses more useful; they do not increase storage capacity or train the model.

• Question 89:

  A service desk wants to automate employee requests, answer common questions, and connect the experience to approved business data with minimal custom code.

  Which two Copilot Studio capabilities support the requirement?

  A. Building and customizing agents for employee interactions
  B. Microsoft Planner
  C. Azure Virtual Desktop
  D. Connecting agents to approved business data and workflows
  A. Building and customizing agents for employee interactions
  D. Connecting agents to approved business data and workflows

  ---

  Explanation

  Copilot Studio supports building and customizing agents for employee interactions and connecting them to approved data and workflows. Planner and Azure Virtual Desktop do not provide the agent-building and business-data connection capability described.

• Question 90:

  HOTSPOT

  A company plans to use Azure AI Foundry Tools to add prebuilt AI capabilities to several business processes. The company wants to minimize custom model development.

  What should you use for each task? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

  NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  

  

  ---

  The answer image maps invoices to Azure Document Intelligence, report summarization to Azure Language, and image description to Azure Vision. The image selections align each task with the prebuilt Foundry Tool designed for that content type.
