Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 35

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(\bar{x}_1, \bar{x}_2\) be the means and \(\sigma_1^2, \sigma_2^2\) be the variances of two distributions. Then, we have, \(\sigma_1^2=144, \sigma_2^2=64\), \[ \frac{\sigma_1}{\bar{x}_1} \times 100=40 \text { and } \frac{\sigma_2}{\bar{x}_2} \times 100=20 \] Now,…
