I don’t like when questions try to trick you.

12 bags of candy x 1.5 pounds = 18 pounds of candy.

The question asks hake many ounces of candy, so we have to multiply 18 pounds x 16 ounces/pound

18 x 16 = 288 ounces

Find the slope of the line on the graph.write your answer as a fraction or a whole number, not a mixed number

Answer:

slope = $-\frac{1}{2}$ if it were in an

Step-by-step explanation:

the graph is a negative and will therefore have a negative slope. to find the slope, pick a point on the graph and find the $\frac{rise}{run}$ .

for instance, start with the point (0,1). Then go down 1 and left 2 to get to the next point on the graph (2,0). 1 is the "rise" and 2 is the "run" hence -1/2 being the slope.

you could also use the slope formula: $\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }$
