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

Since we must save 50 meals for volunteers, the real amount we are giving away is 700 meals in 12 hours.

700/12 = 58.3333...

10*58.333.. = 583.333....

Since we can't serve 1/3 of a person, we take 583. Hope this helps!
