Answer:
SIMPLIFY BOTH EQUATIONS:
2y = 16 + 4x
y = 2x + 8 ( getting rid of the 2 by / 2)
( " / " this means divide.)
6y - 30 = 12x
6y = 12x + 30
y = 2x + 5 ( getting rid of the 6 by / 6)
y = mx + c
m represents the slope
if the slope are equal in both graphs that means they are parallel.
THEY ARE PARALLEL SINCE BOTH HAVE THE SAME SLOPE OF 2 where
m = 2
