Are the graphs of the lines in the pair parallel? Explain.

Y = 5x + 6
-18x + 3y = -54

A.) No, since the slopes are different.
B.) Yes, since the slopes are the same and the y-intercepts are different.
C.) No, since the y-intercepts are different
D.) Yes, since the slopes are the same and the y-intercepts are the same

so you gotta change the second one to slope int form and it will become -3y=18x-54 which means that it's A because parallel lines can't be parallel if the slopes are different. (pretty sure this is right but who knows)
