Answer:

The answer to your question is (-1, 4) The lines cross in one point so they have only one solution.

Explanation:

Data

Equation 1 x - 4y = -17

Equation 2 y = 4x + 8

Solve for y

Equation 1 y = -x/-4 - 17/-4

y = x/4 + 17/4

Equation 2 y = 4x + 8

See the graph below

These lines cross in point (-1, 4), so that is the only one solution.

If the lines were the same line they would have infinite solutions

X-4y=-17 and y=4x +8 solve by graphing please and show the solution-example-1
