Question

For the given pair of equations, give the slopes of the lines, and then determine whether the two lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither. 2x +3y 5 6x +9y 4 Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice. O A. The slope of 2x +3y 5 is O B. The slope of 2x +3y 5 is undefined. Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice. ( A. The slope of 6x +9y#4 is O B. The slope of 6x + 9y 4 is undefined. The lines are (Type an integer or a simplified fraction.) (Type an integer or a simplified fraction.)

Explanation / Answer

2x + 3y = 5

6x + 9y = 4

slope of 2x + 3y = 5

3y = -2x + 5

y = -2/3 x + 5/3

slope = -2/3

slope of 6x + 9y = 4

9y = -6x + 4

y = -6/9 x + 4 /9

y = -2/3 x + 4/9

slope = -2/3

the lines are parallel
