Sagot :

Answer:

parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

the equations of the the 2 lines have the same gradient 2x . this makes them parallel.

We are asked to select whether or not the given pair of lines is parallel, perpendicular, or neither.

[tex]\triangle~\fbox{\bf{KEY:}}[/tex]

  •  Take a look at the slopes of the lines.

[tex]\triangle~\fbox{\bf{HOW\:TO\:FIND\:SLOPE:}}[/tex]

  • Look at the number before x, and that will tell you the slope.

The slope of the first line (let's call it Line A) is 2.

The slope of the second line (let's call it Line B) is also 2.

If the slopes of two lines are the same, then these two lines are parallel.

Hope this helps you out! :D
