The raw data $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_{n}$ is an $A$.$P$. with common difference $d$ and first term $0$. If $\bar{x}$ and $\sigma^2$ are the mean and variance of $x_{i}, i=1, 2, \ldots, n$,then $\sigma^2$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{(n^2+1) d^2}{24}$
  • B
    $\frac{(n^2-1) d^2}{24}$
  • C
    $\frac{(n^2+1) d^2}{12}$
  • D
    $\frac{(n^2-1) d^2}{12}$
