I doubt it’s Day 17, that feels too early.

Wait, is it really Day 22? That seems off.

I think the latest finish for Activity I is Day 20.

I vaguely remember that the latest finish time is crucial for keeping the project on schedule. I think Day 19 sounds reasonable, but I need to think it through more.

I feel like I need to double-check the dependencies in the diagram. I think Activity I has some slack, but I can't recall the exact calculations.

This seems similar to a practice question we did on determining float. I think I might lean towards Day 20, but I could be wrong.

I remember something about calculating the latest finish time using the critical path method, but I'm not sure how to apply it here.

Hmm, I'm not too familiar with the Android Backup Service. I'll need to think this through carefully.

This looks like a tricky one, but I think I can figure it out. Let me think through the options carefully.

I'm not totally sure, but I think configuring the metrics on the interface, like in option C, might not be enough to establish the adjacency.
