When a person aged 39 is added to a group of n people, the average age increases by 2. When a person aged 15 is added instead, the average age decreases by 1. What is the value of T?  Choose the correct choice from the following answers
A) 7
B) 8
C) 9
D) 10
E) 11

Rationale: "a simple and elegant solution . as addition of 39 , shifts mean by 2 , and addition of 15 , shifts mean by 1 to the other side , we have the mean lying between 3915 , and in a ratio of 2 : 1 39 - 15 = 24 24 divide by 3 is 8 . meaning mean of the n terms is 15 + 8 = 39 - 16 = 23 now , from first statement , when a person aged 39 is added to a group of n people , the average age increases by 2 . t * 23 + 39 = 25 * ( t + 1 ) t = 7 ans . ( a )"
Answer: A
