Answer:

They are parallel to each other

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope.

Additionally, in an equation with the following form:

y = mx + b

The number m beside the x, is the slope

So, in this case, both equations have a 3 besides the x, then, they are parallels
