Question 380378: 2) Solve the system of equations by the addition method.
x/2+y/4=2
x/4-y/8=2
Type an ordered pair if possible.
Or the other options are: There are infinitely many solutions, or there is no solution.

Multiplying the second equation by 2, we get
x/2 - y/4 = 4(= 2)
This yields no solutions (x,y).
