Answer:

The correct answer option is A.
(1)/(16).

Explanation:

We are given the following geometric sequence and we are to find its 8th term:


1024, 256,64,...

Here
a_1=1024 and common ratio
(r) = (64)/(256) =0.25.

The formula we will use to find the 8th term is:

nth term =
a_1 * r^((n-1))

Substituting the values in the formula to get:

8th term =
1024 * 0.25^((8-1))

8th term =
\frac { 1 } { 1 6 }
