A line with a slope of zero is a horizontal line. Although two lines that have a slope of zero will result in two parallel lines, not all parallel lines are horizontal lines. Since the question is asking for which statement must be true, option A is incorrect.

If the slopes of two lines are negative reciprocals, they are perpendicular to each other. This is because the product of the gradients of 2 perpendicular lines is -1. Let the gradient of the first line be A and the other be B.

AB= -1

$A = - \frac{ 1}{B}$

$B = - \frac{1}{A}$

Thus, option B is incorrect too.

Undefined slopes gives vertical lines. Like option A, if two lines have an undefined slope, they will be parallel to each other. However since parallel lines are nit necessarily vertical lines, option C is also incorrect.

The distributive property is: a(b + c) = ab + ac. In this expression, the example would be 8(54 + 0) = (8 x 54) + (8 x 0). The cost of eight family passes is therefore equal to 8 x 54. $432 is the answer.
