Question

A turkey should bake for approximately 15 minutes per pound. If you have to preheat the oven for 25 minutes and have 17 write and graph an equation to demonstrate the cooking time of turkey

Answer 1

Answer:

y=25+15x

y=25+15(17)

Step-by-step explanation:

the y is the total time needed

the x is how much the turkey weight

there is a 25 because 25 min is needed to preheat the oven no matter how heavy the turkey is

and 15 is 15 min for each pound

(x = weight of the turkey)

in this case the turkey is 17 pounds you replace x with 17 and then you solve for it. you would end up with 280 min or 1 hr and 40 min

hope it helps...
