B. Define three ruleset variables for the application to pass the driver, vehicle, and insurance input objects. Define one ruleset parameter to return the decision results.
C. Implement a database call that is triggered during rule execution so the rule engine can access all relevant driver, vehicle, and insurance information. Define a ruleset variable to return the decision results.
D. Define one ruleset parameter to pass the driver, vehicle, and insurance information to the rule engine. Define one ruleset parameter to return the decision results.
Question 2
A custom hierarchy property location is defined for each rule to specify geographical location to which the rule applies. The following figure shows the value of the location property for various rules.

Which execution settings should the application developer choose for the validation rule task?
A. Algorithm: RetePlus Exit Criteria: None
B. Algorithm: RetePlus Exit Criteria: RuleInstance
C. Algorithm: Sequential Exit Criteria: None
