-Referring to Table 14-15,which of the following is the correct null hypothesis to determine whether there is a significant relationship between percentage of students passing the proficiency test and the entire set of explanatory variables?

A) H₀ : β₀ = β₁ = β₂ = 0
B) H₀ : β₁ = β₂ = 0
C) H₀ : β₀ = β₁ = β₂ ≠ 0
D) H₀ : β₁ = β₂ ≠ 0
