No, the slopes of the two equations are not the same.

The slope of the first equation 3x + 4y = 48 can be found by rearranging it into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), which gives us y = (-3/4)x + 12. The slope of this equation is -3/4.

The slope of the second equation y = -34x - 3 is -34.

Since the slopes are different (-3/4 and -34), the two lines represented by these equations are not parallel.
