Choice A is one of the answers. Nice work. This is because x+x+x turns into 3x.
Choice D is the other answer because 2(x+1) + x = 2x+2+x = 3x+2. You can find this through trial and error. Or you could graph y = x+x+x+2 and y = 2(x+1)+2 to find that they are the same exact identical diagonal line. A non-graph approach would be to set up a table of values to see that the two tables are identical.
The slopes of two parallel lines are equal! They are identical to one another
Parallel lines, slope is the same so
1) 3x+8y = 12
8y = -3x + 12
y = -3/8(x) + 3/2, slope = -3/8
slope of a line that is parallel = -3/8
2)5x+4y = 5
4y = -5x + 5
y = -5/4(x) + 5/4; slope is -5/4
slope of a line that is parallel = -5/4
--------------------
perpendicular, slope is opposite and reciprocal
3)
3x+8y = 11
8y = -3x + 11
y = -3/8(x) + 11/8. slope = -3/8
slope of perpendicular line = 8/3
4)
x = -7, slope is undefined
so slope of perpendicular line is 0
5)
3x+2y = 12
2y = -3x + 12
y = -3/2(x) + 6 ; slope = -3/2
5x - 6y = 8
6y = 4x - 8
y = 2/3(x) - 4/3; slope is 2/3
slope is opposite and reciprocal, so the equals are perpendicular
6)
3x + y = 5
y = -3x + 5; slope = -3
6x + 2y = -15
2y = -6x - 15
y = -3x - 7.5; slope = -3
both have slope = -3 so equations are parallel
