You don't have a math problem, you have a reading problem. Go back and look at the instructions for posting on this site. If you don't understand the instruction: "One question per post", get someone to explain it to you.
For your first question, use the following rules:
1. If the slopes are equal, the lines are parallel.
2. If the slopes are negative reciprocals, then the lines are perpendicular.
3. Otherwise, the lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

Hi
Are the following lines parallel(same slope),perpendicular(negative reciprocals),or neither
y= 2/3x+1 |m = (2/3) AND 3y=2x-3 OR y=(2/3)x - 1 Parallel
y= 2x+5 | m = 2 AND 2y-x=6 OR y=(1/2)x + 3 |m=(1/2) Neither
Find the point-slope equation for each line containing the given point and slope:
(2,5),m=2 | y =2x + b
5 = 4 + b and (b = 1) y = 2x + 1
(-4,0),m=-1/2 | y = (-1/2)x +b
0 = (-1/2)*-4 + b and (b =-2) y=(-1/2)x - 2
find the slope-intercept equation for each line containing the given pair of points:
Using the point-slope formula, 
(-2,5)and
(-1,4) m = 1/-1 = -1 |y= -x + b
4 = 1 + b and (b=3) y = -x +3
