Set Equations Equal: To find the intersection point of the two lines, we set the two equations equal to each other since at the point of intersection, both equations will have the same y value.So, we have −3x+4=3x−2.
Solve for x: Now, we will solve for x by moving all terms involving x to one side and the constant terms to the other side.−3x+3x+4=3x−3x−2
Combine Like Terms: Simplify the equation by combining like terms. 0x+4=0−2
Identify Parallel Lines: This simplifies to 4=−2, which is a contradiction. This means that the two lines are parallel and do not intersect.
