Answer

$\sum_{i=1}^{12} 5^i$

Work Step by Step

In order to set up the summation notation, we must calculate the value which keeps constantly changing. That value will be designated as the $i$ term . The remaining terms that are the same would remain the same or constant in the summation notation. Thus, we get the summation notation such as: $\sum_{i=1}^{12} 5^i$
