Solve y=-1/4x+2

2x+8y=-40

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

This is just a simple system of equations.

y=-1/4x+2

8y+2x=-40

Get the same variables onto their corresponding sides, so it will look like this:

y=-1/4x+2

8y=-2x-40

Now here, you have to be careful, because to solve for the system of equations, you need to make sure you are multiplying the equation proportionately.

8y=-2x+16

8y=-2x+40.

But here you see that they share the same variables in a similar format, but their values are supposed to be different, meaning that this equation is a false claim. So you would respond to the question as "no solution.
