Gulliver's Travels was the work of a writer who had been using satire as his medium for over a quarter of a century. His life was one of continual disappointment, and satire was his complaint and his defense — against his enemies and against humankind. People, he believed, were generally ridiculous and petty, greedy and proud; they were blind to the "ideal of the mean." This ideal of the mean was present in one of Swift's first major satires, The Battle of the Books (1697). There, Swift took the side of the Ancients, but he showed their views to be ultimately as distorted as those of their adversaries, the Moderns. In Gulliver's last adventure, Swift again pointed to the ideal of the mean by positioning Gulliver between symbols of sterile reason and symbols of gross sensuality. To Swift, Man is a mixture of sense and nonsense; he had accomplished much but had fallen far short of what he could have been and what he could have done.

Answer:
a) 2(7x-4)
Explanation:
Let us first simplify these expressions by multiplying them:
a) 2(7x-4) = 14x-8
b) 2(x-19) = 2x-38
c) 2(x+10) = 2x+20
d) 2(5x+1) = 10x+2
Now, we just plug in x=2 into these simplified expressions:
a) 14x-8 = 28-8 = 20
b) 2x-38 = 4-38 = -34
c) 2x+20 = 4+20 = 24
d) 10x+2 = 20+2 = 22
Now, we see that the original expression was 2(7x-4).
