Well,
If the slope of the lines are the same, then the lines are parralel.
We need to manipulate 2y - 10x = 4 into y = mx + b form.
Add 10x to both sides
2y = 10x + 4
Divide both sides by 2
y = 5x + 2
Do the same thing with the other equation.
Add 2 to both sides
y = 5x + 2
y = 5x + 2
It appears that, not only are they parallel, but they lie on exactly the same line! If this was a System of Simultaneous Linear Equations, then there would be an infinite number of solutions!
