Given that

time required to filled 1/7 of pool = 1/10

so time required to fill 1 pool = 1/10 ÷ 1/7 = 1/10 × 7 = 7/10 hrs

So 0.7 hrs will require to fill the pool at given rate

Answer:

It takes $\frac{7}{10}$ of an hour to fill the pool

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of hours taken to fill the pool.

Using proportion;

1/7 pool= 1/10 hour

1 pool = x

cross-multiply

1/7 x = 1/10

$\frac{x}{7}$ = $\frac{1}{10}$

cross- multiply

10x = 7

Divide both-side of the equation by 10

$\frac{10x}{10}$ = $\frac{7}{10}$

(On the left-hand side of the equation 10 at the numerator will cancel-out 10 at the denominaor while at the right-hand side of the equation 7 will be divided by 10)

x = $\frac{7}{10}$ of an hour

It takes $\frac{7}{10}$ of an hour to fill the pool

mauricio estimates that the first module of the project could be completed in as few as 15 days or could take as many as 25 days

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Most likely time, according to PERT (Program evaluation and review technique).

Step-by-step explanation:

PERT is "a statistical tool used in project management" (Program evaluation and review technique (2020), in Wikipedia), and it is commonly used with CPM (Critical Path Method) to manage projects.

Inside PERT, there are different defined times to accomplished an activity in a project, that is:

An optimistic time or minimum time required to accomplished an activity, i.e., if everything goes better than normal, the activity is accomplished before expected.
A pessimistic time, a time quite the opposite to optimistic time.
A most likely time, or a time required to accomplished an activity if everything goes as expected or normally.
An expected time, an statistical estimation.

Considering the question, we have that the time when "the first module of the project could be completed":

"[...] in as few as 15 days" is the optimistic time.
"[...] or could take as many as 25 days" is the pessimistic time.
"[...] but most likely will require 20 days" is the most likely time.

As a result, the 20-day estimate is called the most likely time in the context of the PERT/CPM techniques.
