\[b_{6} \cdot b_{18} = 49\]
\[b_{1} \cdot q^{5} \cdot b_{1} \cdot q^{17} = 49\]
\[b_{1}^{2} \cdot q^{22} = 49\]
\[\left( b_{1} \cdot q^{11} \right)^{2} = 49\]
\[b_{1} \cdot q^{11} = 7 \Longrightarrow b_{12} = 7\ \ \ или\ \ \]
\[b_{1} \cdot q^{11} = - 7 \Longrightarrow b_{12} = - 7\]
\[Ответ:\ \ 7\ \ или\ \ ( - 7).\]
