Answer:

<em>x = 19</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute the 2 on the left side.

2(x - 5) - 8 = 20

2x - 10 - 8 = 20

Combine like terms on the left side.

2x - 18 = 20

Add 18 to both sides.

2x = 38

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 19

Answer:

Solution for 2(x-5)-8=20 equation:

Simplifying

2(x + -5) + -8 = 20

Reorder the terms:

2(-5 + x) + -8 = 20

(-5 * 2 + x * 2) + -8 = 20

(-10 + 2x) + -8 = 20

Reorder the terms:

-10 + -8 + 2x = 20

Combine like terms: -10 + -8 = -18

-18 + 2x = 20

Solving

-18 + 2x = 20

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '18' to each side of the equation.

-18 + 18 + 2x = 20 + 18

Combine like terms: -18 + 18 = 0

0 + 2x = 20 + 18

2x = 20 + 18

Combine like terms: 20 + 18 = 38

2x = 38

Divide each side by '2'.

x = 19

Simplifying

x = 19

Answer:

264 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Pi (π) = 3.14

Height (h) = 21 ft

Radius (r) = 2 ft

Volume (V) =..?

The volume of the cylinder can be obtained as follow:

V = πr²h

V = 3.14 × 2² × 21

V = 3.14 × 4 × 21

V = 264 ft³

Therefore, the of the cylinder is 264 ft³

Can someone try to help me and explain it for me
Alla [95]

Answer:

g(f(0)) = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate g(f(0)), evaluate f(0) then substitute this value into g(x)

From the table

when x = 0, then f(0) = 1

Then

g(1)

when x = 1 , then g(x) = 5

Thus

g(f(0)) = 5
