Consider 10 observations $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_{10}$ such that $\sum\limits_{i=1}^{10}\left(x_i-\alpha\right)=2$ and $\sum\limits_{i=1}^{10}\left(x_i-\beta\right)^2=40$, where $\alpha, \beta$ are positive integers. Let the mean and the variance of the observations be $\frac{6}{5}$ and $\frac{84}{25}$ respectively. Then $\frac{\beta}{\alpha}$ is equal to :
- A2
- B1
- C$\frac{5}{2}$
- D$\frac{3}{2}$
✓ Correct answer: A
