What are two purposes of instructions when prompting a generative AI model?

Microsoft Foundry Agent Service documentation states that instructions define goals, constraints, and behavior for an agent. Therefore, instructions are used to guide how the generative AI model or agent should respond and behave.

Option A is correct because instructions can define constraints the model must follow.

Option B is correct because instructions can define the agent’s role and behavior.

Options C, D, and E are incorrect because Azure region, model selection, and TPM allocation are configuration or deployment/resource settings, not purposes of prompt instructions.
