Given:

The data set of the monthly rent paid by 7 tenants

990, 879, 940, 1010, 950, 920, 1430

We will find the mean of the data:

Mean = Sum/n

n = 7

Sum = 990+879+940+1010+950+920+1430 = 7119

Mean = 7119/7 = $1017

One of the tenants change from 1430 to 1115

The mean after the change will be as follows:

Sum = 990+879+940+1010+950+920+1115 = 6804

n = 7

Mean = 6804/7 = 972

So, the answer will be:

Mean before the change = 1017

Mean after the change = 972
