If the variance of \(6,7,8,9,10,11\) is \(\sigma^2\), then the variance of \(12,14,16,18,20,22\) is

  1. A \(2 \sigma^2\)
  2. B \(4 \sigma^2\)
  3. C \(100+2 \sigma^2\)
  4. D \(100+4 \sigma^2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(4 \sigma^2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Its a fundamental concept if each data is doubled then variance is 4 times. So, new variance \(=(2)^2 \sigma^2=4 \sigma^2\)
