    The mean of n observation is \[\overline{\mathbf{X}.}\]If the first item is increased by 1, seconds by 2 and so on, then the new mean is

    A)  \[\overline{X}+n\]                    

    B)  \[\overline{X}+\frac{n}{2}\]          

    C)  \[\overline{X}+\frac{n+1}{2}\]

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    (c) \[\overline{X}=\frac{{{x}_{1}}+{{x}_{2}}+{{x}_{3}}+...+{{x}_{n}}}{n}\left( given \right)\] According to question \[\text{New}\,\text{Mean}=\frac{({{x}_{1}}+1)+({{x}_{2n}}+2)+({{x}_{3}}+3)+...+({{x}_{n}}+n)}{n}\] \[=\frac{{{x}_{1}}+{{x}_{2}}+.....+{{x}_{n}}}{n}+\frac{1+2+3+...+n}{n}=\overline{x}+\left( \frac{n+1}{n} \right)\]
