That will help you to answer the questions that follow. Slack (weeks) Path Path Time (weeks) (g) Can you delay D without impacting G? YES or NO? No (1) (h) How much delay (in hours) can you have in A2 without delaying the project? 1 (1) (i) How much delay (in hours) can you have in A2 without impacting F? (1) (j) If Al takes 4 hours to complete, how much delay (in hours) can you have in D without delaying the project? 2 (1) (a) What is the minimum project duration (in weeks)? (1) You will want to fill in the table below to show clearly the sequence of activities to crash to reduce the duration of the project by a total of four weeks, one week at a time, always at the minimum direct cost. That will help you to answer the questions that follow. Question 2. (8 points) Consider the following project where all times are in weeks.
