Answer:

C. Infinitely many solutions

Explanation:

First, simplify the second equation by dividing it by 2

2y = 6x + 2

y = 3x + 1

Now, we can see that both equations are the same, both y = 3x + 1.

Since they are the same line, this means that there are infinitely many solutions.

So, the correct answer is C.
