The purpose of model-building: The main goal is to explain and predict the amount of sleep required (total sleep and dreaming sleep) based on general characteristics of the mammal. The data set includes information on 62 different mammals. Final project Stat 454 Fall 2022 Create summary statistics and at least one descriptive graphic for each variable (besides species name). Examine the correlations between the variables. Which pairs of variables are highly correlated? Develop a multiple regression model to explain the total amount of sleep per day. Look at the correlation between total sleep and other variables you might include in the model (besides species name). Look at scatterplots. Would any variables benefit from a transformation? If so, prepare those variables to be added to the model. Model 1A: Include all reasonable variables in your model. If you left any variables out, explain why. Does this model significantly explain the total amount of sleep required for mammals per day? Support your answer.
