Question

are the two lines parallel y=-3/2x+2,y=2/3x+1

Answer 1

To figure out if two lines are parallel, see if they have the same slope

Answer 2

How will I do that can you explain

Answer 3

the slope is the number in front of x
in the first equation, the slope is -3/2
in the second equation, the slope is 2/3

Are they the same?

Answer 4

Yes they are the same

Answer 5

So you're saying that -3/2 is the same exact number as 2/3?

Answer 6

Oh sorry they are not

Answer 7

No, they are not the same. They are opposites. Which means the lines are perpendicular!
