*Note* When you have a ratio you need to know which comes first. If you put males to females that incorrect. It has to be correct according to the question.

Answer:
A. The mean is increased by 3
Step-by-step explanation:
2 + 9 + 11 + 10 + 3 + 5 + 4 + 12 = 56/8 = 7
2 + 9 + 11 + 10 + 3 + 5 + 4 + 12 + 34 = 90/9 = 10
10 - 7 = 3
Do 12x-9 + 141 = 180 (add -9 and 4)
12x +132= 180 (Subtract 132 from 180)
12x =48 (Divide 48 by 12)
x=4
