If the mean of x1,x2,x3 and x4 is 6 then find the mean of x1+10,x2+8,x3+16 and x4+2​

f the mean of this set is equal to 20, we can write down the below equation,

20 = (x1 + x2 +x3 + + x10)/10

x1 + x2 + x3 + ... x10 = 200

Then we can also write an equation for the mean of the given numbers as below,

Mean  = [(x1+4) + (x2+8) + (x3+12) + + (x10+40)]/10

          = (x1 + x2 + x3 + ... + x10 + 4 + 8 + 12 + ... + 40)/10

Then we can use above equation (1) to replace x1 + x2 + x3 + ... + x10 by 200

Mean = (200 + 4 + 8 +12 + 16 + 20 + 24 + 28 + 32 + 36 + 40)/10

        = 420/10

        = 42

If you remember Arithmetic Progressions you can simply add together the above number set.

If you closely look above, you can find that there is an Arithmetic Progression : 4, 8, 12, ... , 40

Here we want the addition of 10 terms. So we can use,

Sn = n/2(a+l)

S10 = 10/2(4+40)

      = 220

Then you can easily get the answer,

Mean = (200 + 220)/10

         = 42
