We have to find how many purple rectangles does Olivia need for 3 scarves. We know that each scarf will have 5 rectangles and 2/5 of the rectangles will be purple: 2/5 * 5 = 2. It means that each scarf will have 2 purple rectangles. And for 3 scarves : 3 * 2 = 6. Answer: She needs <span>6 purple rectangles.</span>
B = bees, w = wasps, x = hornets
b + w + x = 184
b = 3x - 9
w = x + 28
(3x - 9) + (x + 28) + x = 184...combine like terms
5x + 19 = 184
5x = 184 - 19
5x = 165
x = 165/5
x = 33 <== points scored by Hornets
