plz help
@MARC_ plz help
Someone help me! plz!
@satellite73
plz help
@Directrix
i think it is C
line 1=1/3 line 2=1/3
plz don't leave like the others did
I'm not leaving. I am calculating the equations of the two lines over at http://www.mathportal.org/calculators/analytic-geometry/two-point-form-calculator.php
i don't know if i should put general form or not
I agree with the slopes of the two lines being 1/3. Parallel lines have the same slope. The next question is if the two lines are the same.
they are
i think they are
The form does not really matter. I usually go with y = mx + b out of habit.
Check to see if the y-intercepts are the same.
ok
it says y=1/3x+5
I got y-intercepts of 5 and 2. Did you get that?
Run that equation of a line calculator twice, once for each set of points.
they are on the same line
i don't think so.
Click here and look at the graphs of the two lines. They have the same slope but not the same y-intercepts so they are different lines but do not intersect.

And, the answer is ? @TeenWolfGirl
0 solution, A
Yes, that is what I got.
thank you :)
Happy to help.
