As part of her investigation,she ran the multiple regression model SATM = $\beta$ ₀ + $\beta$ ₁($ per pupil) + $\beta$ ₂(% taking) + $\varepsilon$ _i,
Where the deviations $\varepsilon$ _i were assumed to be independent and Normally distributed with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of $\sigma$ .This model was fit to the data using the method of least squares.The following results were obtained from statistical software. What is the value of the MSE?

A) 10.30
B) 288.23
C) 13835.10
