Larry bought 12 containers of pasta salad for a school picnic. Each container held the same number of ounces of salad. Students finished the pasta salad in 8 of the containers.

A. Let p equal the number of ounces of pasta salad in one container. Write an expression with two terms to represent how many ounces of pasta salad are left.

B. Simplify the expression you wrote in problem 6 to create an equivalent expression. Use the distributive property.

12 p - 8 p,  4p ( 3 - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

p = equal the number of ounces of pasta salad in one container

then 12 × p = 12 p in 12 containers

the students finished the pasta salad in 8 containers which equals = 8 p

the number of ounces of pasta left = 12 p - 8 p  

b) using the distributive property for example a ( b + c) = ( a×b) + (a ×c)

12 p - 8 p = 4p ( 3 - 2)

answer:

total cost for tiles and paints is $924.  

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given that a community hall is in the shape of a cuboid. the hall is 40m long 15m high and 3m wide.

the paint will be required for 4 walls and ceiling.

let us find area of walls and ceiling.

therefore, the area of walls and ceiling is 1410 square meters.

given: cost for 10 litre of paint is $10 and 10 litre paint covers 25 square meter. therefore,

therefore, the total painting cost is $564.

tiles will be required for floor. let us find the area of floor.

given: 1m squared floor tiles costs $3. so,

therefore, the total tiles cost is $360.

now let us find combined total cost of tiles and paint.

therefore, the combined total cost of tiles and paint is $924.
