Answer:

Algebraic expression that best describes the sequence is:


2^(n)

Explanation:

We have the sequence 2, 4, 8, 16, 32,...?

With the Algebraic expression:


2^(n) (1)

n is the number into the sequence that you want to find, we can prove it if we replace in the equation (1)

For example in the first term, n=1


2^(1)=2

in the second term, n=2, and so on


2^(2)=4\\2^(3)=8\\2^(4)=16\\2^(5)=32\\2^(6)=64\\
