8,000. each row's sum is the row # cubed. so the 20th row is 20*20*20 = 8000

The sum of the numbers in each row of Pascal's triangle is twice the sum of the previous row. Perhaps you can work it out from there. (Basically, you should use powers of 2.)
the horizontal sums doubles each time the sum of row 1 = 1 row 2= 2 row 3 = 4 row 4 = 8 row 5 = 16 etc etc.......... the horizontal sums doubles each time the sum of row 1 = 1 row 2= 2 row 3 = 4 row 4 = 8 row 5 = 16 etc etc..........
The sum of the numbers in the nth row of Pascal's triangle is equal to 2^n. Therefore, the sum of the numbers in the 100th row of Pascal's triangle would be 2^100. This formula is derived from the properties of Pascal's triangle, where each number is a combination of the two numbers above it.
When evaluating row n+1 of Pascal's triangle, each number from row n is used twice: each number from row ncontributes to the two numbers diagonally below it, to its left and right. From this it is easily seen that the sum total of row n+1 is twice that of row n. The first row of Pascal's triangle, containing only the single '1', is considered to be row zero. Its total, 1, is given by 20. From the above observations, we can conclude that the total of row n is given by 2n. For the eleventh row: 211 = 2048.
