The mean of a set of $30$ observations is $75$. If each observation is multiplied by a non-zero number $\lambda$ and then each of them is decreased by $25$,their mean remains the same. The value of $\lambda$ is equal to

  • A
    $\frac{10}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{4}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{2}{3}$

Let sets $A$ and $B$ have $5$ elements each. Let the mean of the elements in sets $A$ and $B$ be $5$ and $8$ respectively,and the variance of the elements in sets $A$ and $B$ be $12$ and $20$ respectively. $A$ new set $C$ of $10$ elements is formed by subtracting $3$ from each element of $A$ and adding $2$ to each element of $B$. Then the sum of the mean and variance of the elements of $C$ is $.......$.
