For this case we have the following function:
  f (x) = 2x ^ 2-24x + c
  We set zero to find the roots of the function.
  We have then:
  2x ^ 2-24x + c = 0
  x ^ 2-12x + c / 2 = 0
  Factoring we have:
  (x - / + x1) (x - / + x2) = 0
  On the other hand we have:
  x2-x1 = 18
  x2 + x1 = -12
  Solving the system we have:
  x1 = -15
  x2 = 3
  Substituting we have:
  (x-15) (x + 3) = 0
  Rewriting:
  x ^ 2 -12x - 45 = 0
  Therefore, the value of c is given by:
  c / 2 = -45
  c = -90
  Answer:
  the value of c is:
  c = -90

A company has net income of $130,500. Its net sales were $1,740,000 and its total assets were $2,750,000. Its profit margin equa
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The profit margin calculation is shown below:

= (Net income ÷ net sales) × 100

= ($130,500 ÷ $1,740,000) × 100

= 7.5%

We simply divide net income by net sales in order to achieve the gross profit margin. This indicates a correlation between net income or net income and net sales.  

All other information provided is irrelevant. Therefore, it was ignored

Liliana needs to furnish her new apartment. She found all the items she wanted on the manufacturer's website and can save over $
maw [93]

Answer: The price that Liliana will pay for shipping the furniture may be higher than the amount she saved.

Explanation:

Liliana wants a new furniture for her apartment which she found on the website of the manufacturer. From the information given in the question, we were informed that she will save $500 when she buys from the manufacturer directly.

From the information provided, the deal is good since she'll save $500 but the only thing that might stop her from making the purchase is when the shipping fee is more than the $500 she'll save. In that case, buying the furniture isn't really worth it as other options may be considered.
