Answer:
(a) There are outliers
(b)
and 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given







Solving (a): Check for outliers
This is calculated using:
--- lower bound of outlier
--- upper bound of outlier
Where

So, we have:


The lower bound of outlier becomes




The upper bound of outlier becomes




So, we have:
--- the range without outlier
Given that:
--- This represents the lowest data
--- This represents the highest data
-24 and 64 are out of range of
.
Hence, there are outliers
Solving (b): The outliers
The outliers are data less than the lower bound (i.e. less than -14) or greater than the upper bound (i.e. 62)
So, the outliers are:
and 
1570.29 Is what I came up with, though I'm not entirely certain. I just figured I'd give it a shot
Answer:
-1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Better to write this as
a(n)= -5(1/2)^(n-1)
Then the 3rd term is a(3) = -5(1/2)^(3 - 1), or a(3) = -5(1/2)^2 = -5/4 = -1.25
