Each time it doubles, right? So the nth term would be (first term) * 2^(n-1)

I dont get it -_- i said TENTH term not Nth term

Just keep doubling the results until you get to the tenth one. So you see 6, it doubles too 12, 12 doubles to 24 ans so on. 48 if the fifth term, so your almost there. So what you do is 48 times 2. Like with all the others. And your result will then be doubled and then you double your result again until you get to the tenth term. That's it. I know the answer but I want you to try.
