Consider the X-ray inspection data in Exercise 12-15.

Use rads as the response. Build regression models for the data using the following techniques:

(a) All possible regressions.

(b) Stepwise regression.

(c) Forward selection.

(d) Backward elimination.

(e) Comment on the models obtained. Which model would you prefer? Why?

Exercise 12-15

An article in Electronic Packaging and Production (2002, Vol. 42) considered the effect of X-ray inspection of integrated circuits. The rads (radiation dose) were studied as a function of current (in milliamps) and exposure time (in minutes). 

The data are in Table E12-7.
