Question

What is the relationship between the lines determined by the following two equations?

6x – 2y = 16
y = 3x – 8

zpupster · Answer

it is better to see the relationship if you can put them in the same form
try slope intercept form
y = mx+b
the 2nd equation is already in that form.

subtract 6x both sides in first eq.
then divide all terms by -2

anonymous · Answer

@zpupster  is right, once they are both in the same form, it is easy to see that 6x-2y=16 is just y=3x-8 multiplied by 2

arallel
       perpendicular
       neither parallel nor perpendicular
       they are the same line

these are the answer options. so?

??

anonymous · Answer

they are the same line

anonymous · Answer

ok thats what i answered. how about this one..
Select the equation of the line that passes through the point (2, –1) and has slope 3 in point-slope form.

anonymous · Answer

the point is (2, -1) haha (even u just see question marks)

if* not even lol
