The answer is C because your times each number by 2 6 times 2 is 12, 12 times 2 is 24, 24 times 2 is 48 and you do it 8 times until you get your answer which is 768 bulbs

This is a geometric sequence of the form:

a(n)=ar^(n-1), a=initial term, r=common ratio, n=term number

The common ratio, r, is the defining characteristic of geometric sequences.  It is the value found when dividing each term by the previous term.  In this case:

r=24/12=12/6=2 and we see that the initial value is 6 so

a(n)=6(2)^(n-1) so in the eighth year:

a(8)=6(2^7)

a(8)=768

So after eight years there will be 768 bulbs.
