Question 14 of 50

You need to create a visual that displays sales by employees, trending over months.

The visual must clearly show how employees are performing against each other and have a
ranking for each period.

Which visual should you use?

Select only one answer.

clustered bar chart
ribbon chart
This answer is correct.
scatterplot
treemap
A ribbon chart places the highest (ranked) value at the top of the stacked column each
month and shows those ranked changes over time. A treemap is not meant for displaying
changes over time and wouldn’t easily show ranked comparisons between employees. The
clustered bar chart can be used to show changes over time, and a clustered bar chart will
show comparisons between employees, but no ranking data is provided between employees.
A scatterplot is typically used to compare a relationship between two (or more) calculations
and their categorical distribution between each other.

Question 15 of 50

You implement the Q&A feature in a report, so users can get answers to their questions on
their own.

You need to improve your Q&A search capabilities for end-users.

Which two configurations can you add? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.

Select all answers that apply.

Add a linguistic schema to the dataset.
This answer is correct.
Add synonyms to model fields.
This answer is correct.
Configure the dataset as a composite model.
Organize the dataset columns and measures into logical folders in the Fields pane.

Adding synonyms to model fields will help users search for them. For example, you can give a
synonym of (Actuals) for the (Sales) measure. A linguistic schema describes terms and
phrases that Q&A should understand for objects within a dataset, including parts of speech,
synonyms, and phrasings that relate to that dataset. Composite models are not supported by
Q&A today. Organizing fields by display folders will not impact Q&A search capabilities.

Question 16 of 50 (Pedi ajuda Perplexity)

From Power BI Desktop, you open a Power BI report that contains three pages named Main,
Error Rate, and On-time Rate.

You add a button to the Main page for navigation.

You need to implement a solution that meets the following requirements:

 The navigation destination must change based on the output of a DAX measure named
[Error Rate].
 If [Error Rate] is greater than 5%, the button must display the text “Error Rate” and
navigate to the Error Rate page.
 Otherwise, the button must display the text “On-time Rate” and navigate to the On-Time
Rate page.

What three actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.

Select all answers that apply.

Create a DAX measure that outputs the correct page name based on the value of [Error
Rate].
This answer is correct.
Set the button type to Page Navigation and then use conditional formatting to specify the
destination.
This answer is correct.
Set the button type to Bookmark and then use conditional formatting to specify the
destination.
Set the navigation destination to the Error Rate page.
Use conditional formatting to set the button text.
This answer is correct.
To configure a button for conditional page navigation, you need to create a DAX measure
that outputs the correct destination page name. Then configure the button to use page
navigation and use the newly created DAX measure to specify the navigation destination. To
change the button text to match the page name, conditional formatting must be used to set
the text to equal the newly created DAX measure. No bookmarks are necessary. It is not
necessary to set the destination to a specific page since conditional formatting is used to
specify the destination.

Question 17 of 50

You are using Power BI Desktop to edit a stacked column chart that displays gross sales data
with a date hierarchy that contains year, quarter, month, and day.

You need to prevent users from viewing the hierarchy based on the year.

What should you do?

Select only one answer.

In the Filters pane, add a filter based on the quarter, month, and day.
In the Filters pane, add a filter based on the year.
In the Format pane, modify the Maximum Range setting.
In the Visualization pane, remove the year field from the date hierarchy fields in the X-
axis.
This answer is correct.

To prevent users from viewing the hierarchy based on the year, you remove just the year
from the date hierarchy fields in the x-axis in the Visualization pane. The quarter, month, and
day will remain populated and usable. Modifying the visual Range settings in the Format
pane would affect the range of values displayed in the visual. Adding a filter based on the
year in the Filters pane would filter the values displayed in the visual, not remove a drilldown
level. Adding a filter based on the quarter, month, and day in the Filters pane would filter the
values displayed in the visual but would not prevent users from viewing the hierarchy based
on the year.

Question 18 of 50

You have a bar chart and column chart visual on a report page. Selecting any column from
the bar chart visual filters the column chart data to less than 1% of its unfiltered value.

Which type of visual interaction should be used when the bar chart is filtering the column
chart to ensure that you can easily see the data?

Select only one answer.

expand
drillthrough
filter
This answer is correct.
highlight

Filter will show you the filtered data in this visual. So even when showing filtered data that is
less than 1% of the unfiltered value, it will still display well in the column visual. Highlight
shows you both the unfiltered and filtered values in the visual, for comparison purposes.
Drillthrough is a page navigation experience that takes you from one page to another plus
applies a set of filters to page navigated to. Expand is a way to navigate down a level using
the hierarchy controls.

Question 19 of 50

You have a Power BI report that uses a dataset that is imported from a database.

You add a slicer to a report.

You need to sync the slicer to use it on other report pages.

What is required to sync slicers between report pages?

Select only one answer.

Each slicer must be the same slicer type.
Each slicer must be visible.
Each slicer must have the same title.
Each slicer must use the same column.
This answer is correct.

The same column must be used in each slicer for them to recognize each other in the sync
slicers settings. Slicers can sync even when hidden. Slicers do not need to be the same slicer
type. One slicer could be a list, and the other a dropdown. Slicers do not need the same title
to allow them to be synced.
