    The answer to your question is the third choice.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    a) 6x - 5y = 8

    12x - 10y = 16

    We observe that these lines are the same so they have infinite solutions.

    b)

    7x + 2y = 6

    14x + 4y = 16

    These lines are parallel because they have the same slope, so they do not cross, there is no solution.

    c)

    8x - 3y = 10

    16x - 6y = 22

    These lines are parallel because they have the same slope, so they do not cross, there is no solution.

    d)

    9x + 6y = 14

    18x + 12y = 26

    These lines are parallel because they have the same slope, so they do not cross, they do not have an infinite number of solutions.
