First, we need to find the area of both the tile and cardboard, so we can calculate how much tile will fit in the cardboard
let's bear in mind that an absolute value expression is in effect a piece-wise expression, namely it has a ± versions of the same expression.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The system of equations is:
● 3x + 2y = 7
● 2x + 4y = 8
Where x is the price of a single coffee and y is the price of a single coffee
We will solve this simultaneous equations using the graphing method:
The solutions is the intersection point of to the lines.
(Picture below)
The intersection point is (1.5,1.25)

Answer:
84
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say Nick gets amount N, Angad amount A, and June amount J.
Here's what we know:
A+N+J=140
A=2*N
N=3*J.
Let's plug these values in.
N=3*J, so A+N+J=140 can now be A+3*J+J=140.
A=2*N, and N=3*J, so A=2*3*J=6*J. Then, A+3*J+J=140 is now 6*J+3*J+J=140, so 10*J=140 and J=14. N = 3*J=42 and A=2*N=84. Checking this, 14+42+84=140, so we are good to go!
