What is wrong with the following recursive sum method?  The method is supposed to sum up the values between 1 and x (for instance, sum(5) should be 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 15).

◦ the base case should return 1 instead of 0
◦ the recursive case should return sum(x - 1) + 1; instead of sum(x - 1) + x;
◦ the base case condition should be (x <= 0) instead of (x = = 0)
◦ the recursive case should return sum(x) + 1;
◦ the method should return a boolean instead of an int
