The correct Answer is:
To determine which pair of equations represents parallel straight lines, we will use the condition for parallel lines in the form of linear equations. The condition states that for two lines represented by the equations \(A_1x + B_1y = C_1\) and \(A_2x + B_2y = C_2\), the lines are parallel if: \[ \frac{A_1}{A_2} = \frac{B_1}{B_2} \neq \frac{C_1}{C_2} \] Now, let's analyze each option step-by-step. ### Step 1: Analyze the First Option The first option is: 1. \(2x + 3y = 4\) (Equation 1) 2. \(4x + 6y = 9\) (Equation 2) **Identify coefficients:** - For Equation 1: \(A_1 = 2\), \(B_1 = 3\), \(C_1 = 4\) - For Equation 2: \(A_2 = 4\), \(B_2 = 6\), \(C_2 = 9\) **Calculate ratios:** - \(\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2}\) - \(\frac{B_1}{B_2} = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2}\) - \(\frac{C_1}{C_2} = \frac{4}{9}\) **Check conditions:** - Since \(\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \frac{B_1}{B_2}\) and \(\frac{C_1}{C_2} \neq \frac{1}{2}\), the first option satisfies the condition for parallel lines. ### Step 2: Analyze the Second Option The second option is: 1. \(x + 2y = 4\) (Equation 1) 2. \(2x + y = 4\) (Equation 2) **Identify coefficients:** - For Equation 1: \(A_1 = 1\), \(B_1 = 2\), \(C_1 = 4\) - For Equation 2: \(A_2 = 2\), \(B_2 = 1\), \(C_2 = 4\) **Calculate ratios:** - \(\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \frac{1}{2}\) - \(\frac{B_1}{B_2} = \frac{2}{1} = 2\) **Check conditions:** - Since \(\frac{A_1}{A_2} \neq \frac{B_1}{B_2}\), the second option does not satisfy the condition for parallel lines. ### Step 3: Analyze the Third Option The third option is: 1. \(y = 3x + 5\) (Equation 1) 2. \(x = 3y + 5\) (Equation 2) **Rearranging Equation 2:** - Rearranging \(x = 3y + 5\) gives us \(-3y + x = 5\) or \(x - 3y = 5\). **Identify coefficients:** - For Equation 1: \(A_1 = -3\), \(B_1 = 1\), \(C_1 = 5\) - For Equation 2: \(A_2 = 1\), \(B_2 = -3\), \(C_2 = 5\) **Calculate ratios:** - \(\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \frac{-3}{1} = -3\) - \(\frac{B_1}{B_2} = \frac{1}{-3}\) **Check conditions:** - Since \(\frac{A_1}{A_2} \neq \frac{B_1}{B_2}\), the third option does not satisfy the condition for parallel lines. ### Final Conclusion Only the first option satisfies the condition for parallel lines. Therefore, the answer is: **Answer: The first option \(2x + 3y = 4\) and \(4x + 6y = 9\) represents parallel straight lines.** ---
