Answer 1

Answer:

I have given it step by step below.

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) Mean = sum of observations/total no. of observation

= 23 + 20  + 4 + 19 + 28 + 35 + 25 + 0  +1 + 30/ 10

= 185/10

= 18.5

(ii) additional 35 runs

New Mean

=previous total  + 35/10 + 1     (the 1 gets added in denominator because of                                           the additional observation)

= 185 + 35/11

= 220/11

= 20

Hope this helps you!
