This is a geometric sequence, so use the formula for the sum of a geometric sequence:
Sum = (a(r^n - 1))/(r - 1)
where a is the first term, -5
r is the common ratio, 5
and n is the number of terms
Thus,
Sum = ((-5)(5^6 - 1))/(5-1) = -19530
12 people divided by 3 people = 4
so if 2 bowls serve 3 people...2 bowls x 4 = serve 12 people
therefore, 8 bowls serve 12 people

Answer:
Number of 1 $ bill = 20
Number of 5 $ bill = 6
Explanation:
Let p represent number of one dollar bolls and q represent number of five bills.
A total of 26 bills are in a cash box.
p + q = 26 ------------------------- Equation 1
The total amount of cash in the box is $50
p + 5q = 50 ------------------------- Equation 2
Equation 2 - Equation 1,
p + 5q - p -q = 50 - 26
4q = 24
q = 6
Substituting in equation 1.
p + 6 = 26
p = 20
Number of 1 $ bill = 20
Number of 5 $ bill = 6
