Taking,
x = number of people,
y = pounds of turkey.
This condition can be represented as,
As given in the question, when x = 6 y = 3
Now, putting the values of k in the equation, the equation becomes
Now, we can get the values of y or number of pounds of turkey needed by putting the given x or number of people.

1 cent = 0.01
Beetle cellular offers cellular phone service for 39.95 a month plus one cent a minute.
$39.95 + 0.01x
Salamander digital offers cellular phone service for 9.95 a month plus five cents a minute.
$9.95 + 0.05x
How many minutes would a person need to use a month for beetle cellular to cost the same as salamander digital?
This is calculated as:
Beetle cellular = Salamander digital
$39.95 + 0.01x = $9.95 + 0.05x
Collect like terms
$39.95 - $9.95 = 0.05x - 0.01x
$30.00 = 0.04x
x = $30.00/0.04
x = 750 minutes
A person need to use 750 minutes a month for beetle cellular to cost the same as salamander digital.
