1) The price of a turkey depends on its weight. This week, whole turkeys sell for $1.59 per lb.
The equation is c=$1.59p
The question is: If you had $10 to buy a turkey, how big a turkey could you buy?
*I'm not asking just so I can get the question over it, I actually need some help.*

c is the cost, or the money you have
put in 10 for c and solve for it!
10=1.59p
divide 10 by 1.59 and you left w 6.29
6.29=p
so you could buy a 6.29 pounds turkey!

c=$1.59p
If he price of a turkey depends on its weight, then p = 1.59*w
10 = 1.59*w
w = 10/1.59
w = 6.289308176 ≈ 6.290lb!
