Question

Determine if the given lines are parallel, perpendicular or neither. line a: 6x - 12y = -24 line b: 3y = 2x + 18

Answer 1

Answer: n = 1/2; m = 2/3

Explanation:

A ⇒ 12 y = 6x + 24

`y=(n)/(2)+2`

`n=(1)/(2)`

B ⇒ 3y = 2x + 18

`y=(2)/(3)n+6`

`m=(2)/(3)`

∴ Lines are neither because slop diff.
