Question

The following are the ages (years) of 5 people in a room:
22, 23, 25, 17, 18
A person enters the room.
The mean age of the 6 people is now 24.
What is the age of the person who entered the room?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean=sum of terms/ number of terms

22+23+25+17+18/5

105/5

21

Finding the age of the sixth person

105+x/6=24

105+x=24x6

105+x=144

x=144-105

x=39
