is 2x+3y=10 AND 3x-2y=8 parallel
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "parallel lines have the same slope, put both equation in the slope/intercept and see if this is the case
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 3y = 10
\n" ); document.write( "3y = -2x + 10
\n" ); document.write( "y = $\"-2%2F3\"$ x + $\"10%2F3\"$
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Slope is -2/3
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "3x - 2y = 8
\n" ); document.write( "-2y = -3x + 8
\n" ); document.write( "y has to be positive, multiply by -1
\n" ); document.write( "2y = 3x - 8
\n" ); document.write( "y = $\"3%2F2\"$ x - 4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Slope is 3/2, therefore, No \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
