c) A model selection method that can be performed in the

form the minimum or starting model.
d) None of the above.
Answer- c) A model selection method that can be
performed in the R statistical software given a set of
, controlling factors that form the minimum or starting
model.
Which one is correct?
a) Forward stepwise regression adds one variable to the

possible combinations of the predicting variables.
