the piece of turkey depends on its weight. Suppose turkeys sell for $.59 per pound. write a rule to describe the function. what is the price of a 14lb turkey? if you had $10 to buy a turkey, how big of a turkey could you buy?

C = .59P      where C is the total cost for P pounds

 

14 pounds cost      .59(14) = $8.26

 

10 = .59P       divide both sides by .59

 

 ≈ 16.9     [ you could buy a turkey that weighs approx. 16.9 lbs. ]
