Answer:

They are parallel

Explanation:


Ignore the +3 and the +6 for this problem because both of these graphs have an equal slope!

They both have a leading coefficient of -1, which means their slopes are equal. Because of this, they are parallel.

Here is a fun fact: If two graphs have the same slope (number in front of x) and have different y-intercepts (b values/constants added/subtracted) then they are parallel.

Hope this helps!
