In a meeting \(70 \%\) of the members favour and \(30 \%\) oppose a certain proposal. A member is selected at random. We take \(\mathrm{X}=0\) if he opposed the proposal and we take \(\mathrm{X}=1\), if the member is in favour. Then variance of \(X\) is

  1. A \(\frac{5}{17}\)
  2. B \(\frac{2}{15}\)
  3. C \(\frac{21}{100}\)
  4. D \(\frac{23}{100}\)
