Let $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_{10}$ be ten observations such that $\sum_{i=1}^{10}(x_i-2)=30$,$\sum_{i=1}^{10}(x_i-\beta)^2=98$,$\beta > 2$ and their variance is $\frac{4}{5}$. If $\mu$ and $\sigma^2$ are respectively the mean and the variance of $2(x_1-1)+4\beta, 2(x_2-1)+4\beta, \ldots, 2(x_{10}-1)+4\beta$,then $\frac{\beta\mu}{\sigma^2}$ is equal to:
