Question

use a graph to determine the number of solutions of the sy.
y = -8
y = -8
one solution
no solution
infinitely many solutions

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the equations

The system of equations is \( y = -8 \) and \( y = -8 \). These are two identical horizontal lines (since they have the same \( y \)-value for all \( x \)).

Step2: Determine the intersection

Horizontal lines with the same equation are coincident (they lie on top of each other). Coincident lines intersect at every point along the line, meaning there are infinitely many solutions.

Answer:

infinitely many solutions
