Question

Line BC is represented by 3x + 2y = 8. Line AD is represented by –3x – 2y = 6. What is the relationship of line BC to line AD? Explain how the sum of the equations demonstrates this relationship.

Answer 1

2

Explanation:

if you suntract the 2 you, 3x cancels 2y cancels, 8-6 is 2

Answer 2

Answer: Line BC is parallel to line AD. The system of equations has the sum 0 = 14. Since this is a false equation, the system has no solution, which means the lines will never intersect.
