The answer is: [B]: 4 + y .
______________________
The rest of the answer choices given are all different ways to express, or are equivalents of, the number "4", multiplied by the variable, "y".
______________________
None of those is. The expression 4 In x + In 3 – In r
is equivalent to the epression <em>ln( 3x⁴ / r)</em> .
EXPLANATION: By definition two lines are said to be parallel when the distance between two lines is same when measured from any point on one line.
However the criteria for intersection is that the distance between two lines should change and eventually should change to zero at intersection point.

Answer: A) intersecting</h3>
-----------------------------------------------
Work Shown:
Solve the first equation for y
x+y = ab
y = -x+ab
y = -1x + ab
slope = -1, y intercept = ab
-----------
Solve for y in the second equation
bx - y = a
bx - y - a = 0
bx-a = y
y = bx - a
Slope = b, y intercept = -a
-----------
The first equation has a slope of -1. The second equation has a slope of b.
Since b cannot equal -1, this means the two equations have different slopes. It is impossible for these two lines to be parallel, because parallel lines have equal slopes. The different slope values tell us the lines cross at exactly one point.
