Answer:

the sum of the first 6 terms =189

Step-by-step explanation:

the first 6 terms-

96,48,24,12,6,3

I found them easily by dividing 48 with random small numbers until I got 6 for the fifth term. So here I divided 48 by 2 which is = 24(3rd term), then divided 24 by 2 which is =12(4th term) and then again decide the answer by 2 and finally got 6 for the 5th term. So the ratio is 1/2. For the first term I did the opposite, multiply 48 by 2 which is = 96. And lastly find the sixth term and add them up which is = 189

I tried my best to explain it in simple terms, hope this helps:)

What is the data point that is the farthest from other data points when the box plot is NOT symmetrical?

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: B. Outlier

Step-by-step explanation:

An outlier is an extremely large or extremely small data value in a data set such that it appears far from the other data points when we plot data points on scatter plot or box plot.

Thus, the data point that is the farthest from other data points when the box plot is NOT symmetrical is Outlier.

Its presence affects the value of mean directly. So when a data set have outliers , we prefer Median(Mid value of a data set) as the best measure of central tendency because existence of outliers does not effect Median .

Hence, the correct option is B. Outlier.
