Week8 AssignmentQuestionandSolution

The document is a quiz containing 10 multiple choice questions about project management concepts like the critical path, float, dummy activities, time estimates, and sequencing techniques. It tests understanding of key terms and how to identify the critical path of a sample project network. The questions cover topics like which activities consume time and resources, the longest path through a network of connected tasks, and how to calculate total float based on early and late start/finish times.
