Question

Please complete all work in excel. Use excel to make any necessary calculations and be sure to identify the answer, including units (if necessary).

Answers that need formulas must have them within the answer cell. A manager is trying to educate employees on the effects of personal health and workplace performance. The manager has gathered data from a group of employees to evaluate the effects of sleep and sickness. The manager asked employees to record the total number of hours of sleep they had over 10 working days in two weeks and compared it to the number of sick days that each took over those 10 days. The manager wonders if a non-linear model is a better relationship between the variables.

Sick Days	Total hours of sleep
0	80
2	40
1	60
0	70
3	50
2	90
4	35
1	68
0	72
2	55

Is a linear or non-linear relationship better for hours of sleep predicting sick days and why?
Use the most appropriate model to forecast sick days if someone got 85 hours of sleep.
