Answer:
Slope of PQ = 0
Slope of MN = infinity
PQ and MN are perpendicular to each other
Step-by-step explanation:
for any two points (x1, y1), (x2, y2)given in coordinate plane slope is given by
For any line if slope is zero it is parallel to X axis and perpendicular to Y axis
For any line if slope is infinity it is parallel to Y axis and perpendicular to X axis
Also we know X and Y are perpendicular to each other.
Since slope of PQ is zero it is parallel to X axis and perpendicular to Y axis
Since slope of MN is infinity it is parallel to Y axis and perpendicular to X axis.
Thus two lines PQ and MN are perpendicular to each other.

For this case what you need to know is that the original volume of the cookie box is:
V = (w) * (l) * (h)
Where,
w: width
l: long
h: height.
We have then:
V = (w) * (l) * (h) = 48 in ^ 3
The volume of a similar box is:
V = (w * (2/3)) * (l * (2/3)) * (h * (2/3))
We rewrite:
V = ((w) * (l) * (h)) * ((2/3) * (2/3) * (2/3))
V = (w) * (l) * (h) * ((2/3) ^ 3)
V = 48 * ((2/3) ^ 3)
V = 14.22222222 in ^ 3
Answer:
the volume of a similar box that is smaller by a scale factor of 2/3 is:
V = 14.22222222 in ^ 3
