Final answer:
The Agile Manifesto espouses four main values that focus on individuals and interactions, working software, customer collaboration, and responding to change. The closest matching set of values from the student's options is communication, simplicity, feedback, and courage.
Step-by-step explanation:
The values of the agile approach are deeply embedded in the Agile Manifesto, which emphasizes individuals and interactions over processes and tools, working software over comprehensive documentation, customer collaboration over contract negotiation, and responding to change over following a plan. Although elements like communication, simplicity, feedback, and courage are important in agile methodologies, the four main values listed in the Agile Manifesto differ slightly. The answer to the student's question is not explicitly provided in the options, but the closest to the Agile Manifesto's values is option D) communication, simplicity, feedback, and courage. These align somewhat with the first value of focusing on individuals and interactions, which involves communication and courage; the second value which parallels simplicity; the third value which relates to feedback through customer collaboration; and the fourth value which requires the courage to respond to changes.
