What is the probability that the project will be finished in 21 weeks or less?
What is the probability that the project will take between 19 to 21 weeks to be completed?
If we want a 95% chance of completing the project on time, how far ahead of the schedule meeting time should the project be started?
If activity F is delayed and takes 10 weeks to complete, would the project completion time be any different? If yes, what would be the critical path and the expected completion time?

Let \( f,g :R-> R \) be to functions defined by
\( f(x)=(\int_0^\infty \mathrm{e}^{-t^2}\,\mathrm{d}t)^2 \) and \( g(x)= \int_0^1\frac{e^\frac{-x^2(1+t^2)}{1}}{1+t^2}dt \)
(a).Show that for all \( x\in R : \) \( f(x)+g(x)=\frac{\pi}{4} \)
(b). Deduce that \( \int_0^\infty \mathrm{e}^{-t^2}\,\mathrm{d}t=\frac{\sqrt{\pi}{}}{2} \)

Reverse polish notation: using stack - You can use the Stack included in java.util.Stack (or your own implementation) for this problem.
Reverse Polish notation is a notation where every operator follows all of its operands. For example, an expression (1+2)*(5+4) in the conventional Polish notation can be represented as 1 2 + 5 4 + * in the Reverse Polish notation. One of advantages of the Reverse Polish notation is that it is parenthesis-free.
Write a program which reads an expression in the Reverse Polish notation and prints the computational result.
An expression in the Reverse Polish notation is calculated using a stack. To evaluate the expression, the program should read symbols in order. If the symbol is an operand, the corresponding value should be pushed into the stack. On the other hand, if the symbols is an operator, the program should pop two elements from the stack, perform the corresponding operations, then push the result in to the stack. The program should repeat this operations.
Input: An expression is given in a line. Two consequtive symbols (operand or operator) are separated by a space character.
You can assume that +, - and * are given as the operator and an operand is a positive integer less than 106
Output: Print the computational result in a line.
Constraints:
2 ≤ the number of operands in the expression ≤ 100
1 ≤ the number of operators in the expression ≤ 99
-1 × 109 ≤ values in the stack ≤ 109
