Answer:

Neither.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we write 2x - 5y = 25 in slope-intercept form. That gets us y = 2/5x - 5. Now, we graph both the lines (check the image attached). Parallel means extending in the same direction, everywhere equidistant. Perpendicular means the relationship between two lines that meet at a right angle (90 degrees). As we can see in the screenshot, these lines don't fit any of these categories, so we put "neither."
