In the first week of its release, the latest blockbuster movie sold $16.3 million dollars in tickets. the movie's producers use the formula pt = poe-0.4t to predict the number of ticket sales t weeks after a movie's release. po is the first week's ticket sales. what are the predicted ticket sales to the nearest $0.1 million for the sixth week of this movie's release? (note: t = 0 for the first week.)

$2.2 million tickets will be sold in 6th week.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given formula

p(t) = Tickets sold after time t

p(0) = Tickets sold in first week

t = duration or time

For t = 0 [for 1st week]

p(0) = $16.3 million

For t = 6 weeks

Since for 1st week, t = (1 - 1) = 0

Therefore, for 6th week t = ( 6 - 1) = 5

By placing the values in the formula,

p(5) =

      =

      = 16.3×0.1353

      = $2.2 millions

Therefore, $2.2 millions of tickets will be sold in the sixth week.

14.3

step-by-step explanation:

add all the numbers together.

9 + 12 + 15 + 16 + 17 + 17 = 86

now, divide 86 by how many numbers we have: 6.

86 / 6 = 14.3
