T_{15} = 9565938

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sequence: 2, 6, 18, 54, 162,

Required

Determine the 15th term

The above sequence is a geometric sequence. So, first, we calculate the common ratio (r)

r = \frac{T_2}{T_1}

r = \frac{6}{2}

r = 3

The 15th term is calculated as thus:

T_n = ar^{n-1}

Where

a = 2 and n = 15

T_n = 2 * 3^{15-1}

T_n = 2 * 3^{14}

T_{15} = 2 * 4782969

T_{15} = 9565938

The 15th term is 9,565,938

SI=(P*R*T)/100

P=2000

R=1.5

T=6

SI=(2000*1.5*6)/100

=(2000*9)/100

=180

Neil will earn interest of 180

Cost of 7 gallons=$24.50

Cost of 1 gallon=24.50/7=3.5

Cost of 15 gallons=15*3.5=52.5

Cost of 15 gallons will be $52.5

The wood before starting =12 feet

Left wood=6 feet

Wood used till now=12-6=6 feet

Picture frame built till now= 6/(3/4)

=8 pieces

Therefore, till now 8 pieces have been made.
