5 pounds= 80 ounces
Since each piece weighs 2 ounces you divide 80 by 2 and get 40. 
So, there are 40 slices of cheese

Weight of one cheese slice = 2 ounce

Quantity of cheese slice in one container = 5 pounds.

Here we need to convert 1 pound into ounce first.

1 pound =16 ounce

So applying unitary method here,

Converting 5 pounds into ounces.

5 pounds of cheese = 5*15 = 80 ounces.

So Number of cheese slices = Amount of cheese slice in container divided by quantity of cheese in one slice

So number of cheese slices = 80 divided by 2 = 40

Answer : Number of cheese slices equals 40.

Well I don't know ! 
Let's take a look and see:

The idea is that there could be more than one way
for a roll of the dice to land with the same number.  

-- If the sum is from 1-4, you get the point.
There are  6  different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 1-4.

-- If the sum is from 5-8, Adam gets the point.
There are  20  different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 5-8.

-- If the sum is 9-12, Lana gets the point.
There are  10  different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 9-12.

-- The game is not fair to all three of you.
-- Lana has a distinct advantage over you.
-- Adam has a big advantage over Lana.
-- Adam has an even bigger advantage over you.
-- You are at a big disadvantage.  (Notice that one of your
numbers ... 1 ... can never come up unless one of the dice
falls off of the table.)

Use the drawing tool(s) to form the correct answer on the provided graph.
AlekseyPX

The solutions to the system of equations are (-2,-6) and (4,6)

<h3>How to determine the system of equations?</h3>

We have:

-2x + y = -2

y = -\frac12x^2 + 3x + 2

Next, we plot the graph of both functions.

From the attached graph, the equations intersect at (-2,-6) and (4,6)

Hence, the solutions to the system of equations are (-2,-6) and (4,6)
