The answer is:  "No;  they are not parallel."
<span>____________________________________________</span>
Explanation:
_____________________________________________
Given:

<span>y = 6x + 9 ;  AND

27x - 3y = -81 ;
__________________
We need to rewrite:  
__________________</span>
" 27x - 3y = -81" ; in "slope-intercept form"; that is:  
                                       " y = mx + b" ; and see if the "slope, "m" ;  is the same                                                    as:  "y = 6x + 9" ;  or "6";
 (that is, whether "m = 6";  when an equation is written is "slope-intercept form",  the slope, "m", is the coefficient of "x";  and we are given an equation that is already written in:  "slope-intercept form":
__________________________________
" y = 6x + 9 " ;  in which, the slope, "m", = "6".
___________________________________
If  we can write the other equation given:
__________________________________
" 27x - 3y = -81 " ; in "slope-intercept form"; and "m = 6"; (the same slope), then both equations are "parallel" to each other.
_________________________________________
Given:
______
 27x - 3y = -81 ; 
_____________________
 Let us write this in "slope-intercept form" ;
_____________________________________
Let us multiply the ENTIRE equation (both sides) by "-1"; to get rid of most of the 'negatives' :
________________________________
 -1* {27x - 3y = -81} ; 
__________________________
 to get:  
______________________________
     -27x + 3y = 81 ;
______________________________
Now, add "27x" to EACH SIDE of the equation:
___________________________________
        -27x + 3y + 27x = 81 + 27x ;
_____________________________________
 to get:  3y = 81 + 27x ;  ↔  3y = 27x + 81; 
_______________________________________
Now, divide the ENTIRE EQUATION (both sides) by "3"; to isolate "y" on the left-hand side of the equation; and to re-write the equation in "slope-intercept form:
______________________________________________________
     3y / 3 = (27x + 81) / 3 ;
 ________________________
              y = 9x + 27 ;
_________________________
   So, y = mx + b ;  m = "9"; which is not "6" ; 
____________________________________
So the answer is:  "No; they are not parallel."

No.  The equations can be solved for x and y and so they are not parallel.
x = -6  y= -27
