This is a point when an activity is either started or completed. Often used in conjunction with AOA networks, events consume no resources and have no time to completion associated with them. Select one: a. Event b. Milestone c. Task point d. Path

This is a network analysis technique used to determine the amount of scheduling flexibility (the amount of float) on various logical network paths in the project schedule network, and to determine the minimum total project duration. It involves the calculation of early (forward scheduling) and late (backward scheduling) start and finish dates for each activity. Select one: a. Program evaluation and review technique (PERT) b. Critical path method c. Project schedule d. Milestone path review

Expert Solution

1. A. Event. This is a point when an activity is either started or completed. Often used in conjunction with AOA networks, events consume no resources and have no time to completion associated with them IS CALLED EVENT.

2. B. Critical path method. This is a network analysis technique used to determine the amount of scheduling flexibility (the amount of float) on various logical network paths in the project schedule network, and to determine the minimum total project duration. It involves the calculation of early (forward scheduling) and late (backward scheduling) start and finish dates for each activity IS CALLED Critical path method.

Too often, statistics are used to ‘prove’ some point or to persuade an audience to some particular point of view, without really being accurate, complete, or honest. This issue has been the subject of numerous texts. You may be interested in reading such titles as: Damned Lies and Statistics, or How to Lie with Statistics. Research one example where data analysis might have been misused or misapplied. Read about the example thoroughly so that you understand how analytics was used,...

Too often, statistics are used to ‘prove’ some point or to persuade an audience to some particular point of view, without really being accurate, complete, or honest. This issue has been the subject of numerous texts. You may be interested in reading such titles as Damned Lies and Statistics, or How to Lie with Statistics. Explain why the use of analytics contributed to the problem. Discuss the consequences of the matter. Did the company/organization involve suffer any adverse consequences?

We often use sampling in conjunction with deciding the quality of entire shipments. Suppose a shipment of 400 components contains 68 defective and 332 non-defective computer components. From the shipment you take a random sample of 25. When sampling with replacement (so that the p = probability of success does not change), note that a success in this case is selecting a defective part. The mean of this situation is? 12.500 8.173 2.500 4.250 2. The P(X<6)=?          a. 0.242...

An electroencephalogram (EEG) is often used to measure brain, or neural, activity. Research suggests that transcendental meditation – TM – produces a simplified state of rest and relaxation resulting in an EEG with smaller than normal 22 variance. Suppose normal brain activity has a variance of σ^2 =15volts. A random sample of patients who can achieve the state of consciousness associated with TM will be selected and their brain activity will be measured during meditation. The resulting information will be...

Liquid (anhydrous) ammonia, NH3(l), with a boiling point of –33 °C, is often used as an alternate solvent to water. It forms strong hydrogen bonds and the polar molecules can solvate ionic compounds. Anhydrous ammonia also undergoes autoionization. Therefore, there can be acidic, neutral, or basic species in solutions of liquid ammonia. a) Write the chemical equation, using the Brønsted‐Lowry perspective, that describes the autoionization of NH3(l). (Hints: for water this equation is 2H2O(l) ⇌ H3O+(aq) + OH–(aq); X(am) denotes...
