Answer

Final Answer: The lines are \(\boxed{\text{neither parallel nor perpendicular}}\).

Steps

Step 1 :Determine whether the pair of lines is parallel, perpendicular, or neither.

Step 2 :The slope of the first line is 9 and the slope of the second line is -1/6.

Step 3 :The product of the slopes is -1.5, which is not equal to -1, so the lines are not perpendicular.

Step 4 :The slopes are also not equal, so the lines are not parallel.

Step 5 :Therefore, the lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

Step 6 :Final Answer: The lines are \(\boxed{\text{neither parallel nor perpendicular}}\).
