Answer:
increase
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find the mean of the given data set without any change.
10 + 61 + 10 + 44 + 21 + 79 + 27 + 12 = 264
264 ÷ 8 = <u>33</u>
Now that we have the mean, we can find the mean of the data set with the change of 52.
10 + 61 + 10 + 44 + 21 + 79 + 27 + 52 = 304
304 ÷ 8 = <u>38</u>
<u />
From this, we can see that the mean has increased with the change of 12 to 52. Thus, that's the correct option.
hope this helps!
