Question 1080945: Determine whether the statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain the reasoning. The model T=0.16n+2.83 describes the average movie ticket price, T, n years after 1980, so I can use it to estimate the average movie ticket price in 1980?

T=0.16n+2.83
If you plug in 0 for years after 1980, and try to get the average ticket price for 1980 itself, you get a value of T=2.83 as the amount of the average ticket price for 1980, which is completely sensical. ☺☺☺☺
