Explanation

Explanation

Increase speed and agility (C) is correct because cloud computing allows teams to provision and deploy infrastructure within minutes rather than weeks, dramatically accelerating the time it takes to set up environments for new applications - directly matching the requirement stated in the question.

Trade fixed expense for variable expense (A) relates to cost model, shifting from capital expenditure (buying hardware) to pay-as-you-go pricing - it's about how you pay, not how fast you deploy.

Go global in minutes (B) is about geographic reach - deploying applications to multiple regions worldwide quickly - not about the speed of initial infrastructure setup for a new application.

Stop guessing capacity (D) addresses scalability, eliminating the need to over- or under-provision resources by scaling on demand - this is about right-sizing, not deployment speed.

Memory Tip

Think of Speed and Agility = "Setup Speed" - whenever a question mentions minutes, quickly, or faster deployment/provisioning, the answer is almost always Increase Speed and Agility. "Go global in minutes" can be a tempting trap, but that phrase refers to geographic expansion, not infrastructure setup speed.
