Box Office Receipts U.S. movie box office receipts, in billions of dollars, arc shown in 5-year increments from 1986–2006. (Source: www.boxofficemojo.com)
These receipts R are reasonably approximated by the linear model R = .28944y + 3.5286,
where x = 0 corresponds to 1986, x = 5 corresponds to 1991, and so on. Using the model, calculate the year in which the receipts reach each amount.
(a) $5.3 billion
(b) $7 billion
