Consider $10$ observations $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_{10}$ such that $\sum_{i=1}^{10}(x_i-\alpha)=2$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{10}(x_i-\beta)^2=40$,where $\alpha, \beta$ are positive integers. Let the mean and the variance of the observations be $\frac{6}{5}$ and $\frac{84}{25}$ respectively. The value of $\frac{\beta}{\alpha}$ is equal to :

  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $\frac{3}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{5}{2}$
  • D
    $1$
