Solution
for this case we can write the following general expression:
[tex]a_n=a_1(r)^{n-1}[/tex]And for this case a1= 6
We can find the value of r like this:
[tex]12=6(r)^{2-1}[/tex]r= 2
and then the equation would be given by:
[tex]a_n=6(2)^{n-1}[/tex]then the sum would be:
6+12+24+48+ 96+ 192+384+768+1536+3072+6144=12282
