X bar is the arithmetic mean so

X bar=x1+x2+...........+xn/n

Adding a on both sides

X bar+a=x1+a+x2+a........xn+a/n

So the answer is X bar + a

Given mean of n arithmetic observations, x_1\:x_2\: .........x_n is \overline{x}

We have to find mean of x_1 + a, \:x_2 + a,\: .........x_n+a

We know that, mean = (sum of observations)/(total number of observations)

So, mean = \frac{x_1+a+x_2+a...x_n+a}{n}\\

Here, total observations is n, and a is added to them n times, so we can write

mean

= \frac{x_1+x_2....+x_n + a\times n}{n}\\

\implies\frac{x_1+x_2 ....+x_3}{n} + \frac{a\times n}{n}\\

\implies\overline{x} + a

(\texttt{since,}\frac{x_1+x_2...x_3}{n} = \overline{x})

Hence, the new mean would be equal to the original mean + a
