Question 463639: Solve the following systems of equations and state if any lines are parallel:
-6x + 0 = y
6y -12x + 126 = 30

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
-6x + 0 = y
y = -6x
6y -12x + 126 = 30
6y-12x+96 =0 divide by 6
y -2x + 16 = 0
substitute
-6x -2x+16 =0
-8x = -16
x =2
y = -6 * 2
y = -12
put them is standard form
y = mx + b

y = -6x + o m--> -6
6y -12x + 126 = 30
6y =12x - 96
y = 2x - 16 m--> 2
no the two lines are not parallel m1 does not equal m2
