Here is a list of activity times for a project as well as
crashing costs for its activities. Determine which activities
should be crashed and the total cost of crashing if the goal is to
shorten the project by three weeks as cheaply as possible. There
are three paths (top, middle and bottom). Each path contains three
sequential activities which must be performed in the order they are
listed (e.g., A before B, B before C). Note that Activity C is
contained on both the top and middle paths. (Omit the "$"
sign in your response.)
