Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation to model the situation,
Distribute, multiply each term in the parenthesis with the term outside of the parenthesis. Don't forget the laws of exponents, when one multiplies two exponents, with the same base, then one adds the two exponents. A number with no exponential term is two the first degree meaning that it is to the power of one.
To answer this, you would use the original ratio of 2 to 5 and create an equivalent ratio that includes the 12 tulips. You would get a ratio of 12 to 30. This is not enough daisies.
I then tried 2/5 times 7/7, but it still did not reach the 36 daisies that are there. When you use a factor of 8, you will get 16 tulips to 40 daisies. This works!
You would need to add 4 tulips and 4 daisies to what he already has.
