<!-- imported from openai/gsm8k (test) -->

Let's calculate the total number of DVDs sold by Billy step by step:

1. The first 3 customers buy one DVD each: 3 customers * 1 DVD/customer = 3 DVDs
2. The next 2 customers buy 2 DVDs each: 2 customers * 2 DVDs/customer = 4 DVDs
3. The last 3 customers don't buy any DVDs: 3 customers * 0 DVDs/customer = 0 DVDs

Now, we add up the DVDs sold to each group of customers:

3 DVDs (from the first group) + 4 DVDs (from the second group) + 0 DVDs (from the third group) = 7 DVDs

Billy sold a total of 7 DVDs on Tuesday.

\boxed{7}
