Some assumptions are in order: (1) we assume that we can start tomorrow (April 1), (2) ever yone works 7 days a week. Path 1, 5 and 6 are all critical. Path 5 and 6 will have to be crashed to meet the wedding date of April 22.
3. What is the minimum cost plan that meets the April 22 date? For path 6, we would reduce the time to Receive the Invitations to 5 days (cost $35) and hhire ire help to address Invitations to reduce this time to 2 days (cost $50). This would reduce the path length to exactly 22 days at a cost of $85. For path 5, we would reduce the time to Receive Lace to 5 days (c ost $25), reduce Clean & Press to 1 day (cost $30), and hire Mrs. rreduce educe Sew Dress to 10 (cost $120) days. This Mr s.
