1. The correct option regarding the slopes of the lines is:

   The slopes are equal, so the lines are parallel.

   When are lines parallel, perpendicular or neither?

   A linear function is modeled by:

   y = ax + b

   In which a is the slope.

   The slope determines if the two lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither, as follows:

   • If they are equal, the lines are parallel.

   • If their multiplication is of -1, they are perpendicular.

   • Otherwise, they are neither.

   For the first line, we place the line in the standard format as follows:

   2y = 6x + 2

   y = 3x + 1.

   For the second line, the slope is also of 3, hence they are parallel, as they have the same slope.
