Answer:

1 solution

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 1/2x + 4  

x + 2y = -8

Solve the second equation for y.

2y = -x - 8

y = -1/2x - 4

The two equations in slope-intercept form are:

y = 1/2x + 4

y = -1/2x - 4

The system consists of two lines with different slopes, so they intercept at a single point which is the solution.

Answer: 1 solution
