Answer:

No they are not parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to figure out the slopes of each set of points. For (-5,3) and (-6,-1) the slope is 4 and for (3,-2) and (2,-7) the slope is 5. You can only have parallel lines if the slope is same and the y- ints are different. Here the slopes aren't same.

Sorry If im wrong. Hope this helps!

This is crazy. If I'm reading this right (I'm not sure why there are spaces put in between some of those numbers like there is), I'm getting that the answer is
-1079.242293. But again, those spaces are throwing me off. I eliminated the spaces between the numbers while I was performing the operations in order.
