The variance of x, 2x, 3x, 4x and 5x is
The correct answer is: B
Explanation
Hint: prepare a three-columned table, one for (x), another for the (deviation), and the last for the (squared-deviation).Sum of (x) = 15x, algebraic sum of (deviation) = zero (0)
Sum of (squared-deviation) = 10x2
Variance = โ(squared-deviation)/n = 10x2/5 = 2x2
