(B) Given equation is $(x-2y)^2 + k(x-2y) = 0$.Factoring the equation,we get $(x-2y)(x-2y+k) = 0$.This represents two parallel lines: $L_1: x-2y = 0$

(B) Given equation is $(x-2y)^2 + k(x-2y) = 0$.Factoring the equation,we get $(x-2y)(x-2y+k) = 0$.This represents two parallel lines: $L_1: x-2y = 0$ and $L_2: x-2y+k = 0$.The distance $d$ between two parallel lines $Ax+By+C_1=0$ and $Ax+By+C_2=0$ is given by $d = \frac{|C_1-C_2|}{\sqrt{A^2+B^2}}$.Here,$A=1, B=-2, C_1=0, C_2=k$.So,$d = \frac{|k-0|}{\sqrt{1^2+(-2)^2}} = \frac{|k|}{\sqrt{5}}$.Given $d = 3$,we have $\frac{|k|}{\sqrt{5}} = 3$.Therefore,$|k| = 3\sqrt{5}$,which implies $k = \pm 3\sqrt{5}$.
