The correct Answer is:
To determine the relationship between the two lines represented by the equations \(6x - 3y + 10 = 0\) and \(2x - y + 9 = 0\), we will analyze the equations step by step. ### Step 1: Rewrite the equations in slope-intercept form We start by rewriting both equations in the slope-intercept form \(y = mx + b\), where \(m\) is the slope and \(b\) is the y-intercept. 1. **For the first equation:** \[ 6x - 3y + 10 = 0 \] Rearranging gives: \[ -3y = -6x - 10 \implies y = 2x + \frac{10}{3} \] Here, the slope \(m_1 = 2\). 2. **For the second equation:** \[ 2x - y + 9 = 0 \] Rearranging gives: \[ -y = -2x - 9 \implies y = 2x + 9 \] Here, the slope \(m_2 = 2\). ### Step 2: Compare the slopes Now that we have both equations in slope-intercept form, we can compare their slopes: - The slope of the first line \(m_1 = 2\). - The slope of the second line \(m_2 = 2\). Since both slopes are equal (\(m_1 = m_2\)), the lines are either parallel or coincident. ### Step 3: Check for y-intercepts Next, we check the y-intercepts to determine if the lines are coincident or parallel: - The y-intercept of the first line is \(\frac{10}{3}\). - The y-intercept of the second line is \(9\). Since the y-intercepts are different, the lines are not coincident. ### Conclusion Since both lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts, we conclude that the lines represented by the equations \(6x - 3y + 10 = 0\) and \(2x - y + 9 = 0\) are parallel lines. ### Final Answer Therefore, the pair of lines given above are parallel lines. ---
