Answer:
288 in^2 you would need to find surface area
Step-by-step explanation:
6x4x2=48
6x12x2=144
12x4x2=96
48+144+96=288
Given:
The recursive formula of a geometric sequence is


To find:
The explicit formula of the given geometric sequence.
Solution:
We know that, first term of geometric sequence is
.
Recursive formula of a geometric sequence is
...(i)
where, r is common ratio.
We have,
...(ii)
On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

The explicit formula of a geometric sequence is

Putting
and
, we get

Therefore, the correct option is D.
I think its C to be honest sorry if im wrong
