Answer:

(x + 7) = 41

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of lions in the wildlife reserve = x

Since, 7 lion cubs were born, so the total number of lions in the wildlife reserve will be (x + 7)

Now total number of lions = 41

Therefore, equation representing this situation will be,

(x + 7) = 41

fluorescent powder comes in 20 G vials with 12 vials in a set, each vilal a different color. so if I order 3 sets I will have 3

Anna007 [38]

First you need to know how many cups of powder you are going to need for the 496 cups of paint you already have

$\begin{gathered} 1\text{ CUP POWDER}\Rightarrow5\text{ CUP PAINT} \\ x\text{ CUP POWDER}\Rightarrow496\text{ CUP PAINT} \end{gathered}$

We write this as a ratio

$\begin{gathered} \frac{x}{496}=\frac{1}{5} \\ x=\frac{496}{5} \\ x=99.2 \end{gathered}$

for the 496 cups of paint you will need 99.2 cups of powder.

Continue by seeing how may grams there are in 99.2 cups

$\begin{gathered} 60g\Rightarrow0.2536\text{ CUPS POWDER} \\ x\Rightarrow99.2\text{ CUPS POWDER} \end{gathered}$

write it as a ratio and solve for x again.

$\begin{gathered} \frac{x}{99.2}=\frac{60}{0.2536} \\ x=23470.03155 \end{gathered}$

now find how many vials you will need

$\begin{gathered} 1\text{vial}\Rightarrow20g \\ x\Rightarrow23470.03155g \end{gathered}$

write the ratio and solve

$\begin{gathered} \frac{x}{23470.03155}=\frac{1}{20} \\ x=\frac{23470.03155}{20} \\ x=1173.5\approx1174 \end{gathered}$

If each sets comes with 12 sets, write the ratio and find the number of sets you will need

$\begin{gathered} 1\text{set}\Rightarrow12vials \\ \text{xsets}\Rightarrow1174vials \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} \frac{x}{1174}=\frac{1}{12} \\ x=\frac{1174}{12} \\ x=97.83\approx98 \end{gathered}$

you will need 98 sets for this amount of paint.

Kilo is the unit prefix for multiplication by one thousand. Therefore, a kilogram, or kg, is equal to one thousand grams. To convert grams to kilograms, you simply have to multiply the number of kilograms to grams.

So, for example, if you had 16.24kg of a compound, it would equal:
