Cost of  18 pounds candy  = $22.5

Cost of 10 pounds candy = $12.5

Cost of 1 pound of candies  = $1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

6 pounds of butterscotch candies cost  $7.50

⇔ 1 pound of same candy costs   $1.25

Now, we need to find the cost of 18 pounds of candy:

as, the cost of 6 pounds candy = $7.50

⇔   Cost of 6 x 3 =  18 pounds candy =  $7.50 x  3 = $22.5

Cost of 10 pounds candy =  10 x (Cost of 1 pound candy)

= 10 x ($1.25)  = $12.5

The unit rate for butterscotch candies   = Cost of 1 pound of candies

= $1.25
