Answer:

The quantity of clover seeds the worker will add is 11.14 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x=Poppy seed

y=clover seed

24x+13y=20.70(x+y)

x=26 pounds

Substitute x=26 pounds into the equation

24x+13y=20.70(x+y)

24(26)+13y=20.70(26+y)

624+13y=538.2 +20.70y

Collect like terms

624-538.2=20.70y-13y

85.8=7.7y

Divide both sides by 7.7

y=85.8/7.7

=11.14 pounds

Therefore, the quantity of clover seeds the worker will add is 11.14 pounds

Answer:

#1.---60%   #2.---$12.60 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

#1. Since It was originally $50 you have 50% already, so what I did was I multiplied 50 by 2. this got me 100 which is a simpler way to calculate by. 50 to 80 dollars is a $30 change, so multiply that by 2 and you get 60. 60 will be your percent of change. You can double check this by multiplying 50 by .60, the answer will be 30 and 50+30=80

#2 Since Tyler starts off with $12 per hour with a 5% increase you will need to multiply 12*.05 this will get you the answer of 0.6 you then need to add $12, since that was his original payment. 12+0.6=12.60, so his final payment would by $12.60 per hour

A cylindrical pressure vessel has a height of 9 feet and a diameter of 6 feet. How much gas can the pressure vessel hold when fu
notka56 [123]

since the diameter of the base of the cylinder is 6 feet, then its radius is half that, or 3 feet.


\bf \textit{volume of a cylinder}\\\\
V=\pi r^2 h~~
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
h=height\\[-0.5em]
\hrulefill\\
r=3\\
h=9
\end{cases}\implies V=\pi (3)^2(9)\implies V=81\pi
