Answer:

A) JK and LM will be parallel to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

On reflection on y=x line the x co-ordinate changes with y co-ordinate and y co-ordinate changes with x co-ordinate

(x,y)\rightarrow (y,x)

Points on line EF

(0,6) , (-5,-2)

On reflection of this line on y=x the new points we get for line JK are

(6,0),(-2,-5)

Points on line GH

(-4,9),(-9,1)

On reflection on y=x line the new points we get for line LM are

(9,-4),(1,-9)

Slope of line JK

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x2-x1}\\m=\frac{(-5)-0}{(-2)-6} \\m=\frac{-5}{-8}=\frac{5}{8}

Slope of line LM

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x2-x1}\\m=\frac{(-9)-(-4)}{1-9} \\m=\frac{-9+4}{-8}=\frac{-5}{-8}\\m=\frac{5}{8}

For two line to be parallel, their slopes will be same.

m_{JK} =\frac{5}{8} , m_{LM}=\frac{5}{8}

Since slopes of lines JK and LM are same therefore we can say that these are parallel to each other.

Lisa's shop sells 5 quarts of ice cream each day. How much is this in pints?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

We know there are 5 quarts.

There are 2 pints for each quart.

This can be though of as a ratio of:

2 : 1

There are 5 quarts, which is 5 times bigger than the ratio of 1.

So this means we need to mutliply both sides of the ratio by 5, to make the quarts equivelent to 5:

2*5 : 1*5

=

10 : 5

So for every 5 quarts there are 10 pints.

Hope this helps!
