Answer:

The answer lies in the gradient.

Explanation:

The gradient in this equation is -5/8. If any line has the same gradient as the equation above they are parallel because they have the same slant or tilt. Gradient determines if a line is parallel between linear line graphs. If the gradient between two linear line graphs are equal that means that they are parallel.

First identify what is the gradient of a line. The gradient is usually the number that is multiplied with x. In this case (-5/8x), -5/8 is the gradient.

Hope this help.
