6. Penelope makes 8 cakes per week. Each cake costs \(\pounds 20\) to make and sells for \(\pounds 60\). She always sells at least 5 cakes per week. Any cakes left at the end of the week are donated to a food bank. The probability that 5 cakes are sold in a week is \(0 \cdot 3\). She is twice as likely to sell 6 cakes in a week as she is to sell 7 cakes in a week. The expected profit per week is \(\pounds 206\). Construct a probability distribution for the weekly profit.
