Answer:

The mean will also increase

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the mean is a central value that shows a representation of all data set. The mean is the value to which all data set is showing a tendency.

So, if we have a symmetric data set, but we add a very high value, that will affect the mean, making it higher, because the mean is sensible to these changes.

Therefore, the mean will also increase, because the sum of all elements is higher.
