The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

They had no placeholding zero.

Explanation:

Our numbering system is one of few known to have a numeral for zero. Mayans did; however, theirs never traveled the world. Babylonians were thought to have a mark for nothing, but it was more for punctuation than numerals. Neither the Romans nor the Egyptians had a number for 0 either.

Zero is key to our system of numbering, as it helps us hold place as well as representing nothing. Without it, it is easier to represent problems in words.

Answer:

This should be parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are said to be parallel only if their slope matches. They are said to be perpendicular only if the slopes are negative reciprocals.

Here, you should put both equations in slope intercept form which is y=mx+b. The letter "M" represents the slope of both equations.

2y-6=3x+4 turns into 2y=3x+10 after adding 6 and into y=3/2x+5 after dividing the equation by 2. The slope for this equation is 3/2.

8y=12x+8 must be divided by 8 to be in slope intercept form. This equation becomes y=3/2x+1. Here the slope is also 3/2.

The slopes for each equation match making these lines parallel.
