We have a + b = 180 and a = 12 + b;
Then, 12 + b + b = 180;
12 + 2b = 180;
2b = 168;
b = 84;
a = 12 + 84;
a = 96;
I think you do 120 divided by 5, but I could be wrong.
The nth term is
an=a1(r)^(n-1)
an=1(2)^(n-1)
a1=1
r=2
the sum of a geometric seequence is

a1=1
r=2
we want to find

(since we minus 1, the highest exponet is 9 so add 1 to make it correct)



Because each ticket costs 1 and she spends 8 she would be buying 8 tickets
She has 8 friends so each one would get 1 ticket
The answer is 1
