Let $\mathrm{x}_1, \mathrm{x}_2, \ldots \ldots, \mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{n}}$ be $\mathrm{n}$ observations, and let $\overline{\mathrm{x}}$ be their arithematic mean and $\sigma^2$ be their variance. Statement $1$: Variance of $2 x_1, 2 x_2, \ldots \ldots, 2 x_n$ is $4 \sigma^2$. Statement $2$: Arithmetic mean of $2 \mathrm{x}_1, 2 \mathrm{x}_2, \ldots . ., 2 \mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{n}}$ is $4 \overline{\mathrm{x}}$.
