Answer: The cat is 2/3 times as heavy as the dog.
Step-by-step explanation:
The weight of Priya's cat =
Now, 
The weight of her dog =

Let cat is n times heavy as dog.
Then 

Hence, The cat is 2/3 times as heavy as the dog.
The dog with the weight of 110lbs is the outlier in the equation--since the other dogs only range from 20 to 35 lbs.
Answer:
1 = 144
2 = 80
3 = 192
4 = 1209.6 or 1209
5 = 375
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
In a quadratic equation of the shape:
y = a*x^2 + b*x + c
we hate that the discriminant is equal to:
D = b^2 - 4*a*c
This thing appears in the Bhaskara's formula for the roots of the quadratic equation:

You can see that the determinant is inside a square root, this means that if D is smaller than zero we will have imaginary roots (the graph never touches the x-axis)
If D = 0, the square root term dissapear, and this implies that both roots of the equation are the same, this means that the graph touches the x axis in only one point, wich coincides with the minimum/maximum of the graph)
If D > 0 we have two different roots, so the graph touches the x-axis in two different points.
