How does the addition of a constant and multiplication by a constant affect the arithmetic mean?

If you add the same constant to each element of a sample then the mean of this collection of values will be the mean of the original sample plus the constant. If you multiply each element of a sample by a constant then the mean of this collection of values will be the mean of the original sample multiplied by the constant.
