(i) Given `sum _ (i =1)^n (x_i + 5) = - 90`
⇒`( x+_1 -15) + ( x_2 -15) + ....... + ( x_n -15) = -90`
⇒`( x_1 + x_2 + .......... + x_n ) - (15 +15 + ...... +15) = -90`
⇒ `sumx -15n `= - 90 ........(1)
And `sum _(i=1)^n( x_i + 3) = 54`
⇒ `( x_1 - 3) + ( x_2 - 3) + ....... + ( x_n + 3) = 54`.
⇒ `( x_1 + x_2 + x_3 + .......... + x_n ) + (3 + 3 + 3 + ...... + 37) = 54`
⇒ `sumx + 3n = 54 ` ....(2)
By subtracting equation (1) from equation (2)
`sumx - 30 - sumx + 15n = 54 + 90`
⇒ 18n = 144
⇒`n = 144/ 18 = 8`
Put value of n in equation (1)
`sumx - 15 xx 8 = - 90`
⇒ `sumx - 120 =- 90`
⇒ `sumx = - 90 + 120 = 30`
∴`Mean = (sumx) / n = 30 / 8 = 15 /4`

Explain, by taking a suitable example, how the arithmetic mean alters by
(i) adding a constant k to each term
(ii) subtracting a constant k from each them
(iii) multiplying each term by a constant k and
(iv) dividing each term by a non-zero constant k.
