The demand for the Cyberpunk II arcade video game is modeled by the logistic curve q(t)=13,0001+0.6e0.5tq ( t ) = \frac { 13,000 } { 1 + 0.6 e ^ { - 0.5 t } } Where q(t)q ( t ) is the total number of units sold t months after the game's introduction. Use technology to estimate q(9)q ^ { \prime } ( 9 ) . Assume that the manufacturers of Cyberpunk II sell each unit for $900. What is the company's marginal revenue, dR dq\frac { \mathrm { d } R } { \mathrm {~d} q } Use the chain rule to estimate the rate at which revenue is growing 9 months after the introduction of the video game. Please round each answer to the nearest whole number.
