ANSWER

False

EXPLANATION

The formula for the slope of a line that passes through points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is:

[tex]m=\frac{y_1-y_2}{x_1-x_2}[/tex]

The slope of the first line is:

[tex]m=\frac{3-6}{4-8}=\frac{-3}{-4}=\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

The other line has a negative slope, so the lines are not parallel.
