<span>The first three steps of completing the square to solve the quadratic equation x^2 + 4x - 6 = 0, are shown below.
step 1: x^2 + 4x = 6
step 2: x^2 + 4x + 4 = 6 + 4
step 3: (x + 2)^2 = 10
step 4: x + 2 = +/-sqrt(10)
step 5: x = sqrt(10) - 2, or x = -sqrt(10) - 2
so the steps are in order.</span>
Since there are 5 cats and 2 dogs, divide cats by dogs for the number.
5/2= 2.5
There are 2.5 times more cats than dogs.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
$13,450
Step-by-step explanation:
The fixed costs of production, are the costs incurred that are independent from the production volume, that is, regardless of how many spinners the company produces, those costs will remain the same. If 'x' is the number of spinners produced, interpreting the cost function, we can see that it costs $1.28 to produce each spinner and that there is a cost that does not rely on production of $13,450. Therefore, the fixed cost of production is $13,450.
80/130 simplified would just be 8/13, and that is the simplest form.
Final answer: 8/13
Hope this helped! :)
