On Old McDonald's Farm, there are 16 cows and 4 sheep in the first field. If this ratio is proportional, and there are 48 total sheep on the farm, how many cows does Old McDonald have? *

192 cows

Step-by-step explanation:

16 cows : 4 sheep

? cows : 48 sheep

48 / 4 = 12

16 x 12 = 192

192 Cows

Step-by-step explanation:

if the ratio is 1 sheep: 4 cows then by multiplying 48 by 4 you get a total of 192 cows

when a figure, such as triangle (xyz) is reflected over the line y = x to create x'y'z' the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of the original image (pre-image) will be reversed for the image. (e.g., (x, y) > (y, x)) this means that the pre-image position of the x- and y-coordinates switch places which in turn provides a mirror like image of the original xyz.  

i notice that when i draw a line segment from x to x', that the points are parallel from each other -- they are exactly across from each other and do not intersect with any other points.  

yes, think i would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y' with the reflecting line because of the essence of reflections. because it is a mirror image, each point was effected the same way which leads me to conclude that they same would apply to y and y'.
