After discontinuing all advertising for a tool kit in 2007, the manufacturer noted that sales began to drop according to the model
S =
600,000/1+0.3e^kt
t = 7 where S represents the number of units
sold and
represents 2007. In 2009, 400,000 units were sold.
(a) Complete the model by solving for k. (Round your
answer to three decimal places.)
k =
(b) Estimate sales in 2016. (Round your answer to the nearest whole
