Answer:

A. Parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Equations [tex]\text{y}=3\text{x}+5[/tex] and [tex]\text{-y}=-3\text{x}-13[/tex]

To Find: whether the graphs of y = 3x + 5 and -y = -3x - 13 are parallel, perpendicular, coincident, or none of these.

Solution:

As Equations are linear

Equation of Line 1 = [tex]\text{y}=3\text{x}+5[/tex]

Equation of Line 2 =  [tex]\text{-y}=-3\text{x}-13[/tex]

We know that,

standard equation of line is,

  [tex]\text{y}=\text{m}\text{x}+c[/tex]

writing equation of lines in standard form

Line 1, [tex]\text{y}=3\text{x}+5[/tex]

Line 2, [tex]\text{y}=3\text{x}+13[/tex]

Comparing with standard equations we find out that

Slope of Line 1= [tex]3[/tex]

Slope of Line 2= [tex]3[/tex]

therefore graphs of both equations is parallel, now we have to check if they are coincidental

intercept [tex]\text{c}[/tex] of line 1 =  [tex]5[/tex]

intercept [tex]\text{c}[/tex] of line 2 = [tex]13[/tex]

intercept [tex]\text{c}[/tex] of line 1 ≠ intercept [tex]\text{c}[/tex] of line 2

Graphs are not coincidental

Therefore Option A is correct Graphs of both equations are parallel.

The answer is A, parallel.
