Johanna Ali · Answer 2

Answer: 20 irises 80 tulips

Step-by-step explanation:

Set an equation to be

i (irises) + t (tulips) = 100

t = 4i

Substitute t into an equation

i + 4i = 100

Solve equation

i + 4i = 100

5i = 100

i = 100/5

i = 20

Then substitute i into t equation

t = 4i

t = 4 (20) = 80
