    40 square yards

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The backyard is rectangular and it's dimensions are 7 yards long and 8 yards wide.

    The area of a rectangle is given as:

    A = L * W

    where L = length

    W = width

    Therefore, the area of the backyard is:

    A = 7 * 8 = 56 square yards

    Elliana wants to plant sunflowers on 16 square yards of the backyard and the rest of the backyard will be used for a pool.

    The area left for the pool will therefore be:

    56 - 16 = 40 square yards

    40 square yards will be left for the pool.
