Economists agree that the end points of the curve generate 0 revenue, but disagree on the tax rate that produces the maximum revenue. Suppose an economist produces this rational function, where R is revenue in millions at a tax rate of x percent. Use a graphing calculator to graph the function. What tax rate produces the maximum revenue? What is the maximum revenue?

A. 28.1%; $470 million
B. 29.7%; $467 million
C. 26.5%; $469 million
