If you input the answers you will find that it is D but igreen might answer different

Let's rearrange to slope-intercept form.
3x - 2y = 6
Subtract 3x to both sides:
-2y = -3x + 6
Divide -2 to both sides:
y = 3/2x + 6/-2
What's 6 / -2?

okay

-3

I have no idea
OpenStudy (igreen):
Yes, so we have:
y = 3/2x - 3
6x - 4y = 14
Subtract 6x to both sides:
-4y = -6x + 14
Divide -4 to both sides:
y = 6/4x + 14/-4
What's 14 / -4?

I'm not sure how 14 and 4 go into each other.
OpenStudy (igreen):
14 / -4 = -3.5
So we have:
y = 6/4x - 3.5
Simplify 6/4.
6 / 2 = ?
4 / 2 = ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
6/2 = 3
4/2 = 2
OpenStudy (igreen):
Yes, so we have:
y = 3/2x - 3.5
and
y = 3/2x - 3
Therefore the line's are parallel and have no solution.
