Answer:40 square yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Floor area A=10 square yards
Red tile costs
per square yards
White tile costs
per square yards
Total money spent=
on tiles
Suppose red tiles cover an area of
square yards
So, we can write

Red tiles cover an area of 40 square yards
16 - x = 27
x = -11
16 - x = 27
16 = 27 + x
16 - 27 = x
-11 = x
well, we know the ceiling is 6+2/3 high, and Eduardo has 4+1/2 yards only, how much more does he need, well, is simply their difference, let's firstly convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then subtract.

Answer:
P = $7.00
Step-by-step explanation:
Movie tickets = $8.50
Drink = $4.75
Two friends also bought popcorn
Total spent by the group = $53.75
Given equation:
3(8.50 + 4.75) + 2p = 53.75
Where,
P = cost of one order of popcorn
3(8.50 + 4.75) + 2p = 53.75
25.50 + 14.25 + 2p = 53.75
39.75 + 2p = 53.75
2p = 53.75 - 39.75
2p = 14
p = 14 / 2
p = 7
p = $7.00
