I guess your two equations are:

  1. 4x - 6y = 2
  2. 2x + 3y = 12

Since the plus (+) and equals (=) signs have been stripped from your question.

If this is the case, then they are not parallel since their gradients are not the same.

Without working them out exactly, it can be seen that one is positive (equation 1.) and the other is negative (equation 2.):

  1. 4x - 6y = 2 ⇒ 6y = 4x - 2 ⇒ +ve gradient
  2. 2x + 3y = 12 ⇒ 3y = -2x + 12 ⇒ -ve gradient

As given NO!!!!

Reason ;

#1 ; There is NO EQuation (=)

#2 ; The powers/exponents of 'y' are different at '2' & '12'.

I would suggest that you re-write the question.
