The value of "x" will be "7".
Given:
- [tex]m_2 = 6x+8[/tex]
- [tex]m_6=8x-6[/tex]
When "m" is parallel, then
→ [tex]m_2=m_6[/tex]
By substituting the values, we get
→ [tex]6x+8=8x-6[/tex]
By adding "6" both sides, we get
→ [tex]6x+8+6=8x-6+6[/tex]
→ [tex]6x+14=8x[/tex]
By subtracting "6x" from both sides, we get
→ [tex]6x+14-6x=8x-6x[/tex]
→ [tex]14=2x[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{14}{2}[/tex]
[tex]= 7[/tex]
