Answer:

An infinite set of solutions (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the slopes and Y intercepts are the same, the lines are on top of each other, which means there's an infinite amount of solutions.

Answer:

C) an infinite amount of solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

[1]    y + 8x = -20

  [2]    y + 8x = -20

Solve by Substitution :

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  y

  [2]    y = -8x - 20

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [1]

[1]    (-8x-20) + 8x = -20

  [1]    0 = 0 =>  Infinitely many solutions
