The twelfth element of the geometric sequence is equal to 4,096. (Correct choice: D)

<h3>How to find a determined element of a geometric sequence by exponential formulae</h3>

Sequences are series of elements generated according to at least one condition, usually equations. geometric sequences are generated according to a exponential formulas, whose form and characteristics are described below:

f(n) = a · bⁿ ⁻ ¹ (1)

Where:

a - First element of geometric sequence
b - Common ratio of the geometric sequence
n - Element index within the geometric sequence

If we know that a = 4, b = 2 and n = 12, then the twelfth element of the geometric sequence from the statement is:

f(12) = 4 · 2¹² ⁻ ¹

f(12) = 4 · 2¹¹

f(12) = 4 · 2,048

f(12) = 4,096

The twelfth element of the geometric sequence is equal to 4,096. (Correct choice: D)

Answer:ln is called the natural log, or log to the base e. ln can also be written as

So, we can write the given expression as

The property of logs is:

This mean if the number a is raised to log whose base is the same as the number a itself, then the answer will be equal to the argument of the log which is x.

In the given case, the number e and the base of log are the same. So the answer of the expression will be the argument of log which is 6.

so, we can write

Thus, the correct answer is option D
