Question

a project manager wants to add resources to reduce the overall time it will take to complete a project. on which tasks will the adding of resources impact the schedule? adding resources to tasks on the critical path. adding resources to tasks with dependencies. adding resources to tasks with measured work. adding resources to tasks with no dependencies.

Explanation:

The critical path consists of tasks that directly determine the total project duration. Any delay or acceleration of these tasks impacts the overall project schedule. Adding resources to critical path tasks can reduce their completion time, thereby shortening the total project timeline. Tasks not on the critical path have slack time, so adding resources to them does not affect the overall schedule. Tasks with/without dependencies or measured work do not inherently drive the project schedule unless they are on the critical path.

Answer:

Adding resources to tasks on the critical path.
