Book answer matches posted answer, although they don’t go into how the bandwidth is calculated based on the PHY layer.

(http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Wireless_Technologies)

Option A is false:
“Some SMB customers will require a data rate that is higher than the service provider can supply within the traffic capacity of the multipoint system. The service provider may satisfy those customers by installing Cisco’s point-to-point (P2P) links from the same hub as the P2MP system. Thus, the hub can be a mixture of P2MP and P2P systems.”

Option C is false:
“Point-to-point – P2P; has a higher bandwidth than P2MP because, among other things, it has less overhead to manage the data paths and only one receiver exists per transmitter. Cisco offers MMDS, U-NII, and LMDS systems in P2P.”
