Answer:

Infinite amount of solutions.

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Algebra I

  • Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Explanation:

Step 1: Define systems

y = -3x - 2

4y = -12x - 8

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Substitute in y: 4(-3x - 2) = -12x - 8
  2. Distribute 4: -12x - 8 = -12x - 8
  3. Add 8 to both sides: -12x = -12x
  4. Divide both sides by -12: x = x

Here we see that x does indeed equal to x. Therefore, x can be any value.

∴ The systems of equations have infinite amount of solutions.
