Note 1: The Critical Path activities are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7. Note 2: Using the examples in Appendix 7.1 as a guide, calculate the weighted average activity time of each task (t_e). Determine the project duration. Calculate the variance. Use the Z-score formula, in Appendix 7.1 to calculate the Z-score. Note that non-critical path activities are not included in Z-score calculations. Also be aware that a critical path activity may not need to be included, if it occurs parallel with another critical path activity and has the same t_e. Then use the statistical table A7.2 (or look for a Z-score table on the Internet, because the one is the text is abbreviated) and find the probability of completing the project in 93 time units.
