Answer:
Parallel
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts. If you multiply the top equation by 2, you get:
2(12x + 4y = 16)
24x + 8y = 32
This shows that both lines have the same slope, but then you find the y-intercepts, they are different:
1st equation y-int = 4
2nd equation y-int = 9/2 or 4.5
Just find the slope between the points
basically find (f(10)-f(7))/(10-7)
f(7)=7^2-3(7)-4=49-21-4=24
f(10)=10^2-3(10)-4=100-30-4=66
slope=(66-24)/(10-7)=42/3=14
average rate of change is 14
6 thirty-sixes -4 thirty-sixes = 2 thirty-sixes
2 thirty-sixes = 2•36 = 72
