A project team uses the Three$-$Estimate Method to predict task duration. If the optimistic estimate is $5$ days, the most likely estimate is $10$ days, and the pessimistic estimate is $20$ days, how does increasing the pessimistic estimate to $25$ days affect the expected duration and project risk?

Decreases the expected duration and increases project risk.

Increases the expected duration and increases project risk.

Increases the expected duration and decreases project risk.
