R' = 360-.1x
R'=0 when x = 3600
R(3600) = 648,000
R'=0 when x = 3600
R(3600) = 648,000

How did you .1x? and where did the 3600 come from?

ok. sorry. I forgot this was algebra, not calculus.
recall that the vertex of ax^2+bx+c=0 is at x = -b/2a
R(x) is a parabola, with vertex at x = 360/0.1
R(3600) = 648,000
