Answer:

The 14th term is 8,192

Explanation:

Well we can see that it is multiplying every next term by 2.

2nd term : 1*2 = 2

3rd term : 2*2 = 4

4th term : 4*2 = 8

So, we can simply carry out this process.

5th term : 8*2 = 16

6th term : 16*2 = 32

7th term : 32*2 = 64

8th term : 64*2 = 128

9th term : 128*2 = 256

10th term : 256*2 = 512

11th term : 512*2 = 1024

12th term : 1024*2 = 2048

13th term : 2048*2 = 4096

14th term : 4096*2 = 8192

The 14th term is 8,192
