    Answer: The answer is no solution.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First you want to isolate x.

    x=-2 (y+3)

    Then you substitute.

    [-2 (y+3) + 2y=-2]

    Then you refine.

    -4=0

    As you can see - 4 isn't equal to 0, therefore this system is false. Which is where we get the answer no solution.

    undefined/no solution

    Step-by-step explanation:

    you use elimination to solve. So multiply 2x+4y=-12 by 1 and x+2y=-2 by 2. then you subtract 2x+4y=-12 by 2x+4y=-4 and get 0y=-8. Anything divided by 0 is undefined/no solution because you can't divide anything by 0.
