Answer:

<em>Most likely time, </em>according to PERT (Program evaluation and review technique).

Step-by-step explanation:

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

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

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

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

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

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

If the point A is located at (-5,-3) and A’ is the image of A after being rotated about the origin by 270 (counter clockwise). W
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

D (-3, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

270 counter clockwise is the same as 90 clockwise.

For a 90° clockwise or 270° counter clockwise, take the opposite of the x coordinate then switch the coordinates.

(-5, -3) -----> (5, -3) ------> (-3, 5)

You can also rotate your screen 90° clockwise to see the new coordinates for A.

How old am i if 200 reduced by 2 times my age equals 16?
Anna [14]
Ok, so since it doesn't give a value for "my age", we'll call it x.  So the sentence translates into an equation...

200 reduced means... 200 -
by 2 times my age means... 2x
equals 16 means... = 16

200 - 2x = 16

Now let's solve for x to find "my age"

First subtract 200 from each side to begin to isolate x

-2x = -184

Divide each side by -2 to isolate x

x = -184/-2
x = 92

I'm 92 years old!
