Answer:
a) Parallel when a = -2/3
b) Perpendicular when a = 6
Explanation:
a) For two parallel lines slopes are equal.
So, 6y=−2x+4 and 2y=ax−5 parallel if they are slopes equal.
Slope of 6y=−2x+4, comparing with y = mx + c
So, m = -2/6 = =-1/3
For 6y=−2x+4 and 2y=ax−5 to b parallel we have slope of 2y=ax−5 equal to -1/3
Slope of 2y=ax−5
m = a/2
We have a/2 = -1/3
a = -2/3
b) For perpendicular lines product of slope is -1.
So we have
