2. What is a weakness of the traditional problem-solving model?

1. A) Its need for implementation time

ACCURATE ANSWER:-A 3d




Reasoning:->>The traditional problem- 3d 3d




solving model is less effective when time constraints are a consideration. Decision making can oc

cur without the full analysis required in problem solving. Because problem-
