Reference no: EM1393358

A personnel manager for a large corporation feels that there may be a relationship between absenteeism and age and would like to use the age of a worker to develop a model to predict the number of days absent during a calendar year. A random sample of 10 workers was selected with the results presented below:

Age Days Absent

27 15

61 6

37 10

23 17

46 9

58 7

28 13

36 11
