Consider three observations $a, b$ and $c$ such that $b = a + c$. If the standard deviation of $a + 2, b + 2, c + 2$ is $d$,then which of the following is true?

  • A
    $b^{2} = 3(a^{2} + c^{2}) + 9d^{2}$
  • B
    $b^{2} = a^{2} + c^{2} + 3d^{2}$
  • C
    $b^{2} = 3(a^{2} + c^{2} + d^{2})$
  • D
    $b^{2} = 3(a^{2} + c^{2}) - 9d^{2}$
