Mrs. Gomez has two kinds of flowers in her garden. The ratio of lilies to daisies in the garden is 5:2 If there are 20 lilies, what is the total number of flowers in her garden?

28

Step-by-step explanation:

5 : 2

since this is a simplified ratio, they have a common factor. let's say it is 'x'

so now :

5x : 2x

we know that 5x is lilies, and we also know that she has 20 lilies, so:

5x = 20

x = 4

the daisies would be 2x so 2*4 = 8

total flowers is 20 + 8

28

squares, rhombus, rectangles

answer: the proof is mentioned below.

step-by-step explanation:

since, given:   lines bc = ef

prove:   lines ac > ef

          statements                                           reason

1. bc=ef                                           1. given

2. ac= ab+bc                                 2. because b is the point between the  

                                                            line segment ac

3.   ac > bc                                       3. because if a line segment is equal to

                                                          the sum of two line segments then it is

                                                          always greater then each of these

                                                          individual line segments

4. ac > ef                                         4. by equality property.
