Question
Let x1, x2, ..., xn be n observations. Let for i = 1, 2, 3, ..., n, where a and b are constants. If the mean of is 48 and their standard deviation is 12, the mean of is 55 and standard deviation of is 15, the values of a and b are
(a) a = 1.25, b = −5 (b) a = −1.25, b = 5 (c) a = 2.5, b = −5 (d) a = 2.5, b = 5
