The incremental model is a result of combination of elements of which two models?

(i) Build and FIX model and waterfall model
(ii) Linear model and RAD model
(iii) Waterfall model and RAD model
(iv) linear model and Prototyping model

Solution

Correct Answer: (iv) linear model and Prototyping model

Explanation

Incremental Model delivers system in increments (builds).

  • Linear model (Waterfall) provides sequential phases (requirements→design→code→test) for each increment.
  • Prototyping provides iterative feedback and early versions for each increment before final integration.

So each increment follows linear sequence, but overall product evolves via prototypes/increments.

Why others wrong:

  • (i) Build-and-Fix is ad-hoc, not a model
  • (ii) RAD is itself an incremental/high-speed variant, not parent
  • (iii) Waterfall + RAD is redundant (RAD already contains incremental)

Answer: (iv) linear model and Prototyping model
