Question

The equation of line k is y=

Answer 1

The answer is option (C)

Answer 2

Answer:

Neither parallel nor perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you meant line k is y = 3x -2. If not, this is wrong.

For this, you need to put both lines in point-slope form, or the form that line k is already in. This means you only need to convert line m.

-2r + 6v = 18

6v = 2r + 18

v = 2/6r + 18/6

v = 1/3r + 3

Now you can answer the question.

To be parallel, lines must have the same slope (but a different y-intercept). 3 and 1/3 are not the same, so the lines are not parallel.

To be perpendicular, one line must have the opposite reciprocal (fraction flipped and + goes to - or - to +) of the other. While 3 is the reciprocal of 1/3, they are both positive, so they are not perpendicular.

To be the same line, the equations must be absolutely identical, which they aren't.

This leaves the last option: neither.
