Exercise 5.7.17 A retailer determines that their revenue R as a function of the amount q (in thousands of dollars) spent on advertising can be approximated by R(q)=−0.003q3+1.35q2+2q+80000≤q≤400 thousands of dollars. (a) Determine the concavity of R using intervals and determine if there are any inflection points. (b) If the retailer currently spends $140,000 on advertising, should they consider increasing this amount?
