Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

y = - 2x + 1 → (1)

4x + 2y = - 2 → (2)

substitute y = - 2x + 1 into (2)

4x + 2(- 2x + 1) = - 2 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side

4x - 4x + 2 = - 2 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

0 = - 4 ← not possible

this indicates the system of equations has no solution

Solve and check 8-(6-8x) =4x+4

Greetings!

"Solve and check $8-(6-8x)=4x+4$ "...

Solve for x:
 $8-(6-8x)=4x+4$
Remove the Parenthesis.
$8-6-8x=4x+4$
Simplify.
$2-8x=4x+4$
Add -4 to both sides.
$(2-8x)+(-4)=(4x+4)+(-4)$
Simplify.
$-2-8x=4x$
Add 8x to both sides.
$(-2-8x)+8x=(4x)+8x$
Simplify.
$-2=12x$
Divide both sides by 12.
$(-2)/12=(12x)/12$
Simplify.
$-0.166666667=x$

The answer is: x=-0.166666667

Hope this helps.
