They're parallel!

When you isolate y in both equations, the slope (the number before x) is equal, so they are parallel.

Parallel

Let's rewrite each equation in the slope-intercept form of a straight line which is #y=mx+b#. We get:

#y=-4x+12#. Its slope #m_1=-4#

#y=-4x+1#. Its slope #m_2=-4#

Since their slopes are the same they are parallel.
