Q:

Logical puzzle

John, Jenita, Maria and Julie went to a shop. Each picked a colorful ball of a different favorite color. The colors are Yellow, Violet, Green and Red. John and Maria both do not like violet. The person who likes red is a girl. Jenita likes green, but it is not her favorite color. Jenita's favorite color is either green or yellow, although she can have only one favorite color. John likes red, but it is not his favorite color.

Answer

Jenita's color should be yellow. John's color cannot be violet and red, it might be yellow or green. As Jenita's color is yellow, so John's color will be green. Maria's do not like violet, so her color must be Red. Then Julie's color is violet.

Q:

A) Parametric modeling B) Analogous
C) Rule of thumb D) Fixed Rate
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Analogous

Explanation:

Richard is using an estimate based on a project very similar to to his own with staff he will be using.  Answer A is incorrect because perametric modeling involves using a mathematical model to predict costs, such as dollars per line of code. Answer C is incorrect, although close; if the development project is a common item, such as putting down new flooring, a rule -of-thumb measurement can be used, although it is less accurate. Answer D is incorrect because it is not a form of estimating, but a type of pricing.
