By the intersecting chords theorem, you have

Answer:
The value of g that makes the statement true is 11.
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement is 26 = 7(g - 9) + 12 wich is an equation. In order to find the value of g that satisfies the equation we need to isolate the variable of interest, in this case g. We have:
7*(g-9) + 12 = 26
7*(g-9) = 26 - 12
7*(g-9) = 14
(g-9) = 14/7
(g-9) = 2
g = 2 + 9 = 11
The value of g that makes the statement true is 11.
well, let's first notice, all our dimensions or measures must be using the same unit, so could convert the height to liters or the liters to centimeters, well hmm let's convert the volume of 1000 litres to cubic centimeters, keeping in mind that there are 1000 cm³ in 1 litre.
well, 1000 * 1000 = 1,000,000 cm³, so that's 1000 litres.

now, we could have included the "cm³ and cm" units for the volume as well as the height in the calculations, and their simplication will have been just the "cm" anyway.
The minute hand is like an eight inch radius of a circle, whose circumference would equal 2 * PI * 8 = 50.265 inches. By moving to 8 o'clock, it travels 2/3 of the circumference or 50.265 * 2/3 = 33.510 inches
