Initial mean of 25 observations is 40.
X? = (Σx? )/25 = 40 => Σx? = 25 * 40 = 1000.

A teacher of age 60 retires.
The new sum of ages for the remaining 24 people is 1000 - 60 = 940.

A new teacher of age x joins.
The new sum for 25 people is 940 + x.
The new mean is 39.
(940 + x) / 25 = 39
940 + x = 39 * 25
