A researcher wants to determine if the number of years of education for a parent correlates with the number of years of education for their child. The table shows the number of years of education of the parent and the number of years of education of their child for a random sample of 7. Years of Education of Parent 13 9 12 10 12 10 12 Years of Educations of their Child 15 11 10 16 17 12 17 Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if there is a significant linear correlation between the two variables. Use α = 0.05. What is the critical value for this hypothesis test? 1.943 2.015 2.447 2.571
