A recipe for cooking turkey states to cook the turkey 15 minutes per pound. Add an additional 5 minutes per pound if the Turkey is stuffed. Our turkey is 16 pounds and will be stuffed. We plan to eat at 1:00 PM. Allow 30 minutes for cooling and carving. What time does the turkey have to be put in the oven?

The turkey has to be put in the oven at 7:10 AM.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

Turkey stuffed with 16 pounds

Since the time of cooking is 15 minutes per pound with an addition of 5 minutes per pound when the turkey is stuffed, hence we have:

Therefore, the total time of cooking is 320 minutes or 5 hours plus 20 minutes.

If they plan to eat at 1:00 PM with 30 minutes for cooling and carving, then:

Hence, the turkey has to be put in the oven at 7:10 AM.

75 tickets have been sold so far.

step-by-step explanation:

in this question it is clearly mentioned that 45 children's tickets have been sold and this number is 60% of the total tickets sold.

now let's assume the total number of tickets sold be x.

then 60% of x = 45

⇒

⇒ x(.6) = 45

by dividing with .6 on both the sides of the equation

⇒ x = 75

therefore 75 tickets have been sold so far.
