A police chief wants to determine if crime rates are different for four different areas of the city (East(1), West(2), North(3), and South(4) sides), and obtains data on the number of crimes per day in each area. The one-way ANOVA table is shown below. The competing hypotheses about the mean crime rates are ________. A) H₀: μ₁ = μ₂ = μ₃, H_A: Not all population means are equal B) H₀: Not all population means are equal, H_A: μ₁ = μ₂ = μ₃ C) H₀: μ₁ = μ₂ = μ₃= μ₄, H_A: Not all population means are equal D) H₀: Not all population means are equal, H_A: μ₁ = μ₂ = μ₃= μ₄
