For a statistical data $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_{10}$ of $10$ values,a student obtained the mean as $5.5$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{10} x_i^2 = 371$. He later found that he had noted two values in the data incorrectly as $4$ and $5$,instead of the correct values $6$ and $8$,respectively. The variance of the corrected data is

  • A
    $7$
  • B
    $4$
  • C
    $9$
  • D
