A company begins an advertising campaign in a certain city to market a new product. The
percentage of the target market that buys the product is a function of the length of the advertising
campaign. The company estimates this percentage as 1 –e–0.03t where t = number of days of the
campaign. The target market is estimated to be 1,000,000 people and the price per unit is $0.60.
The cost of advertising is $3000 per day. Find the length of the advertising campaign that will
result in the maximum profit.
