    c) An Infinite Number of Solutions

    Step-by-step explanation:

    y - 6 = 2x

    y = 2 (x+1) + 4.

    Solve the first equation for y

    y = 2x+6

    Set the two equations equal

    2x+6 = 2 (x+1) + 4

    Distribute

    2x+6 = 2x+2+4

    2x+6 = 2x+6

    Subtract 2x from each side

    6 = 6

    This is always true so there are infinite solutions
