The new mean will be (400*99+1500)/100=411
The mean increased by 11.

Answer:

Explanation:

Mean income of 99 people = $ 400

Sum of income of 99 people = 400 * 99 = $ 39600

Income of a woman = $ 1500

Income of 100 people = 39600 + 1500 = $41100

Mean of 100 people = 41100/100 = $411

411 - 400 = $11

Mean income increases by $11
