Answer:don’t listen to the other guy he’s wrong. The answer is the same line.

Explanation:

20y-24x=-20 add 24x to both sides

20y=24x-20

Divide 20 to all

New equation is

Y=5/6x-1

Now let’s solve for 5y-6x=-5

Add 6x to both sides

5y=6x-5

Divide 5 to all

The new equation is

Y=6/5x-1

As you see they have the same equation so the answer is that the lines are the same :) have a good day guys hope this helped <3
