Answer 1

Answer:

  yes, they are parallel; the general form equation differs only in the constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract y from the first equation and multiply by 2.

  y -y = 1/2x -y +3

  0 = x -2y +6

  x -2y +6 = 0 . . . . . put in general form

Compared to the second equation, we see the only difference is in the constant, +6 vs. -8.

This means the lines are parallel.
