Verification Requirements for Parallel Railings

A construction team is installing two parallel safety railings along a warehouse ramp, modeled by the equations 3x2y=63x - 2y = 6 and y=32x+1y = \frac{3}{2}x + 1. To ensure the railings are perfectly parallel and do not overlap, you must verify their algebraic properties. Recall and describe the two specific mathematical conditions that must be true regarding the slopes (mm) and y-intercepts (bb) of these linear equations to classify them as parallel.
