Basically, you need to calculate "x" correct?
The tangent of (52) = x / 20
1.2799 = x / 20
x = 1.2799 * 20

they amount of money are not the same
reason why;
the reason why its not the same is because 2x8x9=144 and 3x9x12=324 and the amount of money spent is different
The answer is y = -2/3x + 2
A(n) = current term
a(n + 1) = next term
in a geometric sequence, the next term comes from a product of the current term and the common ratio.
the common ratio can be any value, let's say use r = ½.
if the current term is say hmmm 40, the next term is 40*½ , or 20, so indeed, the next term is smaller.
