(a) Use a formula to express the total time T, in minutes,
needed to preheat the oven and then bake a turkey weighing p pounds.
T = ________
\(\begin{array}{|lll|} \hline \text{Preheat Time }: & 15 \min. \\ \text{Turkey Time }: & p\cdot 16\frac{ \min.}{pound} \quad & | \quad p \text{ in pounds} \\ \text{Total Time }: & T= 15 \min. + p\cdot 16\frac{ \min.}{pound}\\ \hline \end{array} \)
(b) Use your formula from part (a) to find the approximate time required to prepare a turkey weighing 15 pounds.
T = ________ min
\(\begin{array}{|rcll|} \hline p &=& 15\ pounds \\ T &=& 15 \min. + 15\ pounds \cdot 16\frac{ \min.}{pound}\\ T &=& 15 \min. + 15\cdot 16 \min. \\ T &=& 15 \min. + 240 \min. \\ T &=& 255 \min. (4h\ 15\min.) \\ \hline \end{array} \)
