You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y=3x+7 this line has a slope (m)=3
\n" ); document.write( "8x-2y=16 I'll assume there is an = sign in here somewhere
\n" ); document.write( "-2y=-8x+16
\n" ); document.write( "y=-8x/-2+16/-2
\n" ); document.write( "y=4x-8 this line has a slope (m)=4
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore they are not parallel.
