Answer:
She will need 3.5 pounds of cheese to make the 28 casseroles
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are tasked with calculating the amount of cheese in pounds needed to make 28 casseroles.
In the revised recipe, she intends using 1/2 of what is supposed to be used in the original recipe. Mathematically, since each original casseroles is meant to take 4 ounces of cheese, the revised recipe taking half will have 1/2 × 4 = 2 ounces of cheese per casserole
Now for 28 casseroles based on the revised recipe, the total amount of cheese to be used mathematically is equal to 28 × 2 = 56 ounces of casserole
The questions asks that our answer be in pounds
Mathematically, 1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds
Hence, 56 ounces of casseroles will be 56 × 0.0625 = 3.5 pounds of cheese
Its been a little while, but im pretty sure it is y (greater than or equal to sign) 3/4x - 3
