In order to solve for parallel, perpendicular, or neither, you have to look at the slope.
If the slope is the same for both equations, it is most likely parallel.
If it's the reciprocal (Where you flip the number and add change the signs. For example, the reciprocal of 1/2 is -2)
If the slope is not the same or the reciprocal, then it is neither.
So for the first equation, your slope is:
3x+2y=6
2y=-3x+6
y=-3/2x+3 The equation y=mx+b can help you here, where m is the slope.
Your slope is -3/2
For the second equation, your slope is -3/2 since y=-3/2x+5 is already in y=mx+b form and m is the slope.
Since both slopes are -3/2, then you have parallel equations!
(Be careful though, sometimes it will have the same slope but there will also be the same y-intercept. If that happens, it's no longer parallel, but it's the same equation. Such as y=-3/2x+1 and y=-3/2x+1. In this case there will be infinite solutions, but parallel equations have no solutions.)
I hope this helps!! Please ask if you have more questions!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Angles A and P are marked congruent; angles B and Q are marked congruent, so the triangles are similar by the AA similarity postulate. The similarity statement can be written ...
ΔABC ~ ΔPQR by AA similarity
__
The ratio of sides of PQR to ABC is the ratio QR/BC = 12/6 = 2. That is, each side in the larger triangle is 2 times the length of the corresponding smaller side.
PQ = 2·AB = 2·4 = 8
PR = 2·AC = 2·7 = 14
The side lengths of interest are ...
PQ = 8, PR = 14
⓵ You need to solve the left side first in order to isolate the × and find it’s value :
-7× + 6 = 27
-6 -6
↓
-7× = 21
÷-7 ÷-7
↓
× = -3
If you find it too difficult to divide a number by a negative, just divide 21 by 7 and always remember that when dividing, when the signs are different the answer is negative. So knowing that you could just divide 21 by 7, which is 3, and add a negative sign in front!
