Answer: He should plant 50 tulip bulbs and 300 daffodil bulbs .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of tulip bulbs and y be the number of daffodil bulbs.

According to the given statement , we have

[tex]y= 6x--------------(1)\\x+y=350-------------------(2)[/tex]

Substitute the value of y from (1) in (2) , we get

[tex]x+6x=350[/tex]

[tex]7x=350[/tex]

Divide both sides by 7 , we get

x= 50  

Out value of x in (1) , we get

[tex]y= 6(50)=300[/tex]

Hence, He should plant 50 tulip bulbs and 300 daffodil bulbs .
