Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

the sequence is geometric because : (1/4)/(-1/8) = (-1/8)/(1/16)=-2   = r

the nth term is :  An =A1 × r^(n-1)

a common ratio is : r  and A1 the first term

in this exercice :   r =2         A1 = 1/16

when : n =12 you have the  12rd term  A12

A12 = 1/16 × 2^(12-1)  = 1/16 × 2^(11)
