Answer:
slope(m1)= -coeff.of x/coeff.of y
:.m1= -1/2
slope(m2)= -coeff.of x/coeff.of y
:.m2= -1/2
so it is parallel to each other......
on dividing both side of the second eqn by 6 you get
y+1/2x=2
so they are parallel to each other
[
keep in mind that:
any two equations are parallel if they have same coefficient for x and y but different constant values.
