The activities A and B form a important phase of a project.
i). Derive the probability distribution of the completion times of this phase if the two activities are undertaken in:
a. series
b. parallel
ii) For each of the distribution in (i) above, calculate their relevant statistics.
A task is known to have the following time to completion (in days), T and cost, C probability distribution, respectively: T ≈ N(20,25)
The distribution of C is conditional on T and is given by:
N(1500,4900), T ≤ 22;
C ≈ N(1800,4900), 22<T ≤ 25;
N(2300,4900), 25< T.
Calculate:
i). Pr(T≤ 25);
ii Pr(C≤ 2200).
