**Question 13**

```cpp
int x = 10;
int y = 0;

while (x >= 5 && x <= 20)
{
    cout << "hello world";
    x = x + 2;
}
```

**Question:**
How many times does this code execute the line `cout << "hello world"`?

- [ ] 4
- [ ] 6
- [ ] 7
- [ ] 5

---

**Explanation of Code Logic:**

The code initializes `x` to 10 and continuously prints "hello world" while x satisfies the condition `x >= 5 && x <= 20`. Each iteration of the loop increments `x` by 2.

- Initial `x = 10`
- Iterations:
  - 1st: `x = 10`  (prints "hello world")
  - 2nd: `x = 12`  (prints "hello world")
  - 3rd: `x = 14`  (prints "hello world")
  - 4th: `x = 16`  (prints "hello world")
  - 5th: `x = 18`  (prints "hello world")
  - 6th: `x = 20`  (prints "hello world")
  
After the 6th iteration, `x` becomes 22, which does not satisfy the loop condition. Thus, it stops executing further.

**Correct Answer: 6**
