Answer: A. The mean will increase by 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When you solve for mean, you have to add all the numbers together, and then whatever your answer is, divide it with the total number of values.

69 + 73 + 71 + 75 + 67 = 355

355 divided by 5 = 71

If you add 77 to the data set.......

69 + 73 + 71 + 75 + 67 + 77 = 432

432 divided by 6 = 72
