1 The seats in the movie theatre ARE at a slope so as to allow everyone to see the screen properly.
2 Look at the condition in which you've returned my book to me. OK
3 You can come in however/how you want, there is no dress code. BOTH but however is better
4 Do you realize who you are/do you realize that what you're doing is wrong. BOTH
5 I didn't know who else to go to but you/other than you. BOTH

I have one last question

which would you say

Its the same price if you it here or there/here as there. (I'd say both, but someone told me that OR was the correct one, but last i checked you can say "It's the same price if you buy it here as (it would be if you bought it) there.

thank you

1 OK
2 OK
3 BOTH seem awkward to me unless you delete 'in', in which case only 'however' is a reasonable choice.
4 Do you realize that what you're doing is wrong.
5 OK, but 'else' and 'other' form a redundancy.

6. Both seem OK to me, too.
