Answer:

I think you are intended to answer parallel lines

Explanation:

There are two answers to this.

1) The lines could be parallel if their y intercepts are different.

2) The lines are different forms of the same line.

For example

parallel:

  • y = 3x + 5
  • y = 3x - 2

Different forms of the same line.

  • y = 4x + 2
  • 2y = 8x +4

The second condition is termed consistent. The second condition is of 2 lines with the same slope and the same y intercept.
