Solve each System by Elimination & determine how many solutions the system has

then we have two exact same equations.Therefore, there are infinite solutions.I hope this helps!......
solve each System by Elimination and determine how many solutions the system has; i.e. (one solution, no solution, infinite many solutions)

1.) 16x + 14y = -14
8x + 7y = -15

2.) -4x + 10y = -8
-2x + 5y = -4

1. If you multiply the second equation by 2, then you get undefined solution. Note that:

16x + 14y = -14
(8x + 7y = -15)

16x + 14y = -14
16x + 14y = -30

Because -14 ≠ -30, there is no solution.

2. If you multiply the second equation by 2, then we have two exact same equations. Therefore, there are infinite solutions.

I hope this helps!
