As of week 8, the Gantt chart shows that the project is:
Answer(s): B
Assuming that 1) each of the bars represents the expected time necessary to complete an activity and 2) the shaded regions represent the portions completed, activity A has been completed as scheduled and activities B and C are ahead of schedule. Consequently, the project is ahead of schedule.
When using PERT Program Evaluation Review Technique), the expected time for an activity when given an optimistic time A), a pessimistic time B), and a most likely time m) is calculated by which one of the following formulas?
Answer(s): C
PERT was developed to aid managers in controlling large, complex projects. PERT analysis includes probabilistic estimates of activity completion times. Three time estimates are made:Optimistic, most likely, and pessimistic. The time estimates for an activity are assumed to approximate a beta probability distribution. PERT approximates the mean of the beta distribution by dividing the sum of the optimistic time, the pessimistic time, and four times the most likely time by six.
The process of adding resources to shorten selected activity times on the critical path in project scheduling is called:
Answer(s): A
Activity times are estimated for normal effort and crash effort. Crashing is the process of adding resources to shorten activity times on the critical path in project scheduling. The network diagram and the corresponding activity cost chart for a manufacturing project at Networks, Inc. are presented below. The numbers in the diagram are the expected times in days) to perform each activity in the project.
The expected time of the critical path is:
The critical path is the longest path. The longest path in the diagram is A-D-E, which requires 13 days 5.5 + 7.5) based on expected times. The network diagram and the corresponding activity cost chart for a manufacturing project at Networks, Inc. are presented below. The numbers in the diagram are the expected times in days) to perform each activity in the project.
To keep costs at a minimum and decrease the completion time by 1-1/2 days, Networks, Inc.should crash activity)
The critical longest) path is A-D-E, which has an expected time of 13 days 5.5 +7.5). However, to decrease the project's completion time by 1.5 days, paths A-B-C-E 4.5 + 1.0 + 6.5 = 12 days) and A-B-D-E 4.5 + .5 + 7.5 = 12.5 days) as well as A-D-E must also be shortened. Hence, A-D-E must be reduced by 1.5 days, A-B-C-E by .5 day, and A-B-D-E by 1.0 day. The only way to decrease A-D-E by 1.5 days is to crash activity. AD 5.5 expected time - 4.0 crash time = 1.5 days). Crashing DE results in a 1.0-day saving 7.5 -- 6.5) only.Crashing AB is the efficient way to reduce both A-B-C-E and A-B-D-E by the desired amount of time because it i s hart of both paths. The incremental cost of crashing AB is U $1,000 US $4,000 crash cost -- US $3,000 normal cost) to shorten the completion time by 1.0 day 4.5 -- 3.5). The alternatives for decreasing both A-B-C-E and A-B-D-E are more costly.

my 3rd test and passed on first try. hats off to this brain dumps site.
please upload it
does anybody know if are these real exam questions?
are these questions similar to actual questions in the exam? because they seem to be too easy
i have a lot of experience but what comes in the exam is totally different from the practical day to day tasks. so i thought i would rather rely on these brain dumps rather failing the exam.
good questions
valied exam dumps. they were very helpful and i got a pretty good score. i am very grateful for this service and exam questions
will it help?
very useful to verify knowledge before exam
good stuffs
question 17 : responses arent b and c ?
just passed the exam on my first try using these dumps.
very helpful
these questions look good.
this is very helpful content
please provide the dumps
it is amazing
quesion 178 about "a banking system that predicts whether a loan will be repaid is an example of the" the answer is classification. not regresion, you should fix it.
please upload apache spark dumps
q14 is b&c to reduce you will switch off mail for every single alert and you will switch on daily digest to get a mail once per day, you might even skip the empty digest mail but i see this as a part of the daily digest adjustment
i think it is good question
good for students who wish to give certification.
is there a google drive link to the images? the links in questions are not working.
very promising, looks great, so much wow!
i scored 87% on the az-204 exam. thanks! i always trust
good need more
sample questions seems good
huawei is ok
good one nice
please continue
this exam dumps just did the job. i donot want to ruffle your feathers but your exam dumps and mock test engine is amazing.
nice questions
the explanation are really helpful
just passed my exam yesterday on my first attempt. these dumps were extremely helpful in passing first time. the questions were very, very similar to these questions!
