The data scientist decides to test potential models that include other information.

Part 1
Linear regression.
Of the four models, linear regression has the highest R (0.8), indicating it explains the greatest proportion of variance in sales.

Part 2
Var 4 -- Net operations cost.
Net operations cost has a p-value of essentially 0 (far below 0.05), indicating it is the only additional predictor statistically significant in explaining sales. Neither inventory cost (p0.90) nor initial investment (p0.23) reach significance.
