Answer: A

Explanation:

See Cynefin Framework (five decision-making contexts). Scrum is a complex context. The complex domain represents the "unknown unknowns". Cause and effect can only be deduced in retrospect, and there are no right answers. Empiricism asserts that knowledge comes from experience and making decisions based on what is known.
