Figure 18-8 The figure shows the relationship between the number of mechanics hired and the number of car repairs performed per day at a car-repair shop.    ​ -Refer to Figure 18-8. Suppose the shop pays each of its mechanics $210 per day. Over what interval of prices (that is, charges per car repair, P) would the shop maximize its profit by hiring exactly 3 mechanics? (Determine P<sub>1</sub> and P<sub>2</sub> such that P<sub>1 </sub>< P < P<sub>2 </sub>).
