The date for this milestone is which of the following?

Hi,
Can anyone help me on below question, Thanks.
A project manager has been asked by the client to meet the promise date of the project. The project manager analyzes the schedule before promising a date to the customer. The project manager uses the program evaluation and review technique to evaluate the project schedule. She decides that based on the PERT calculations she can promise a delivery date of June 30. The expected value of the project completion date is May 30. If the project manager is willing to accept a 5% probability that the project will be delivered later than June 30, what is the standard deviation of the duration of the activities on the critical path? Assume a five-day workweek.
a. Ten days b. Fifteen days c. One-half month d. One month

1st question is not properly
1st question is not properly worded. If you ignore the last line then you will understand that the answer is constraint. Since "The customer requests that one of the milestones of the project be completed by a certain date"

any condition imposed on
any condition imposed on schedule either pushing back or pulling forward, you to have to follow that particular condition.
here in project your date is too much early but because of customer demand you are bound to delay that certain mile stone and consequently your schedule will be impacted with a lag.
what you say , is it not constrained.!!!!!!!!!!1
