Answer:

D. 16,384

Explanation:

The given sequence (including "6") is neither arithmetic nor geometric. The 14th term cannot be predicted. (It can be anything you like.)

__

Based on the answer choices, we assume the intended sequence is the geometric sequence ...

2, 4, 8, 16, 32, ...

which has formula ...

an = 2^n

Then the 14th term is ...

a14 = 2^14 = 16,384
