Line 1: y= - 4/3x - 8

Line 2: 3y = - 4x + 4

Line 3: 6x + 8y = - 4

First we need to write each equation in the slope-intercept form, as follows:

Line 1: y= - 4/3x - 8

Line 2: y = -4/3x + 4/3

Line 3: y = -3/4x - 1/2

Line 1 and 2 are parallel because both have the same slope.

Line 1 and 3 and 2 and 3 are neither parallel nor perpendicular.
