detailed solution

Correct option is A

We have,an+12=anan+2⇒ 2log ⁡an+1=log ⁡an+log ⁡an+2Similarly,2log⁡an+4=log⁡an+3+log⁡an+52log⁡an+7=log⁡an+6+log⁡an+8Substituting these values in second column of determinant, we getΔ=12log⁡anlog⁡an+log⁡an+2log⁡an+2log⁡an+3log⁡an+3+log⁡an+5log⁡an+5log⁡an+6logn+6+log⁡an+8log⁡an+8=12(0)=0  [Using C2→C2−C1−C3
