Answer:

C) 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, ...

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]t_1=64\\\\t_n=\dfrac{t_{n-1}}{2}\\\\\text{Therefore}\\\\t_2=\dfrac{t_1}{2}\to t_2=\dfrac{64}{2}=32\\\\t_3=\dfrac{t_2}{2}\to t_3=\dfrac{32}{2}=16\\\\t_4=\dfrac{t_3}{2}\to t_4=\dfrac{16}{2}=8\\\\t_5=\dfrac{t_4}{2}\to t_5=\dfrac{8}{2}=4\\\\t_6=\dfrac{t_5}{2}\to t_6=\dfrac{4}{2}=2\\\\t_7=\dfrac{t_6}{2}\to t_7=\dfrac{2}{2}=1\\\vdots[/tex]
