Determine whether the pair of equations is parallel, perpendicular or neither.
y = 5x + 2
10x – 2y = 6
O parallel
O perpendicular
O neither

The answer is neither.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve for y in the equation, 10x-2y= 6.

In other words, we are going to find the slope intercept of that equation.

So we have now have both the equations:

It's not parallel because the slopes aren't the same. It's not perpendicular because when the slope of the equation becomes a negative reciprocal, it still doesn't end up with the same slope as the other equation.

It's neither parallel or perpendicular.
