Kristen has $16.26 for a buffet. There is an entrance fee of $5.31 with a $2.96 charge for every pound of crab legs ordered. This situation is modeled by the equation 2.96p + 5.31 = 16.26, where p represents the number of pounds of crab legs ordered. How many pounds of crab legs can Kristen eat at the buffet? (round to the nearest tenth of a pounds of crab legs ordered)
