Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A: For a random variable X which has mean = 10 and variance = 100. the variance of (5x+10) is 2500.
Reason R: Var(ax+b) = Var(x)
and so the variance of (ax+b)
or Var(5x+10) is 100.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
2
Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
3
A is true but R is false
4
A is false but R is true
