-A small manufacturing firm collected the following data on advertising expenditures (in thousands of dollars) and total revenue (in thousands of dollars) .  Advertising, x Total Revenue, R256430286432316434326434346434396431406432456420\begin{array}{c|c}\text { Advertising, } \mathrm{x} & \text { Total Revenue, } \mathrm{R} \\\hline 25 & 6430 \\28 & 6432 \\31 & 6434 \\32 & 6434 \\34 & 6434 \\39 & 6431 \\40 & 6432 \\45 & 6420\end{array}

Find the quadratic function of best fit.


A) R(x) =0.015x2+4.53x+6123R ( x ) = - 0.015 x ^ { 2 } + 4.53 x + 6123
B) R(x) =0.091x2+5.95x+6337R ( x ) = - 0.091 x ^ { 2 } + 5.95 x + 6337
C) R(x) =0.024x2+7.13x+6209R ( x ) = - 0.024 x ^ { 2 } + 7.13 x + 6209
D) R(x) =0.31x2+2.63x+6128R ( x ) = - 0.31 x ^ { 2 } + 2.63 x + 6128
