Let us suppose the number is x. Now we try to make an algebraic expression going step by step.

Step 1:

Five times the number means 5 multiplied by x.

So it becomes 5x.

Step 2:

Sum of 14 and five times the number means 5x+14.

Step 3:

Number multiplied by -8 means -8x.

Step 4:

Subtract the expression in step (3) from expression in step (2)

5x+14-(-8x)

Now we can simplify it further,

5x+14+8x

Combining like terms,

13x+14

Answer: The final expression becomes 13x+14.

For the first figure the Circumference of the circle is: 5.3 $\ip$ $\pi$ cm.

For the second figure the Circumference of the circle is: 80 $\ip$ $\pi$ inch.

<h3>What is Circumference of the Circle?</h3>

The circumference of a circle is defined as the linear distance around it.

i.e., $C= 2 *\pi*r$

For First Figure,

Circumference of the circle:

$= 2 *\pi*r$

$= 2 *\pi* \frac{5.3}{2}$

$= 2 *\pi*2.65$

$Circumference= 5.3*\pi cm$

For the second Figure,

Circumference $= 2 *\pi*r$

$= 2 *\pi*40$

$= 80 *\pi$

$Circumference =80\pi \;inch$

For the first figure the Circumference of the circle is: 5.3 $\ip$ $\pi$ cm.

For the second figure the Circumference of the circle is: 80 $\ip$ $\pi$ inch.
