In a nonlinear optimization problem
 a. the objective function is a nonlinear function of the constraints.
  b. all the constraints are nonlinear only when the objective is to maximize the function of the decision variables.
  c. at least one term in the objective function or a constraint is nonlinear.
  d. both the objective function and the constraints must have all nonlinear terms.

Question 2

The difference between the observed value of the dependent variable and the value predicted using the estimated regression equation is known as the
