Since lines X and Y are parallel, they have the same slope.
The slope of line X can be found by comparing the coefficients of x and the constant term in equation B, which is 3x + 16. Therefore, the slope of line X is 3.
The slope of line Y can be found by comparing the coefficients of x and the constant term in equation g, which is 2x + 29. Therefore, the slope of line Y is 2.
Since lines X and Y have the same slope, we can set up the following equation:
3 = 2
However, this is not true. Therefore, there is no common solution for x and y that satisfies the condition of parallel lines.
Lines X and Y are parallel. If B = 3x + 16, g = 2x + 29 and a = 2y + 17 then find the values of X and Y the figure is not drawn to scale
X=
Y=
