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.

in the diagram, AE is tangent to the circle at point a and secant DE intersects the circle at point C and D. the iines intersect
AlexFokin [52]
Recall the secant-tangent theorem, and you have
EA^2 = EC*CD
12^2 = 8*(x+10)
and now ED = EC+CD = 8+x+10
