Answer:

infinitely many solutions

Explanation:

First take the equations of both the lines: y= 1/4 (x-4) and y=1/4x-1

Leave the first equation ( y=1/4(x-4) ) alone and go to the other equation. It has parentheses so use the distributive property..

y=1/4 (x-4)

1/4 times x = 1/4x

1/4 times 4 = 1

so that would get you, y=1/4x-1

which is the same as the first equation.
