If the standard deviation of $x_i$ is $10$,what will be the variance of $(50 + 5x_i)$?

$A$ scientist weighs $30$ fish. Their mean weight is $30 \text{ g}$ and the standard deviation is $2 \text{ g}$. Later,it is discovered that the weighing scale was not calibrated correctly and every fish's weight was recorded $2 \text{ g}$ less than the actual weight. What are the correct mean and standard deviation (in grams) of the fish weights,respectively?
