In a data set with $15$ observations $x_1, x_2, x_3, \ldots, x_{15}$,we are given $\sum_{i=1}^{15} x_i^2 = 3600$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{15} x_i = 175$. If the value of one observation $20$ was found to be incorrect and was replaced by its correct value $40$,then the corrected variance of the data is:

  • A
    $151$
  • B
    $149$
  • C
    $145$
  • D
    $144$
