3x-6y=12
\n" ); document.write( "convert equation to slope intercept form
\n" ); document.write( "6y=3x-12
\n" ); document.write( "/6
\n" ); document.write( "y=(1/2)x-2
\n" ); document.write( "m= slope = 1/2\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "and y=(x+4)/2
\n" ); document.write( "multiply by 2
\n" ); document.write( "2y= x+4
\n" ); document.write( "/2
\n" ); document.write( "y=(1/2)x+2
\n" ); document.write( "m= slope = 1/2
\n" ); document.write( "the slopes equal
\n" ); document.write( "so the lines parallel\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
