I cannot get my car to start

I have a Pontiac Grand Am GT, it has been parked for 2 weeks and I jus tried to start it up but it will not start, I thought it was the battery but my dashboard lit up what could it be. It was backed in by my garage and it sits on a hill. What could be wrong?

The starter requires a high rate of discharge from the battery and dash lights only uses a very low voltage. Try a jump start.
