ANSWER

B. infinite solutions

EXPLANATION

We want to solve the equation;

[tex]6x + 3y = - 6...(1)[/tex]

and

[tex]2x + y = - 2...(2)[/tex]

We multiply the second equation by 3 to get:

[tex]6x + 3y = - 6...(3)[/tex]

We now subtract equation (1) and (3).

[tex]6x - 6x + 3y - 3y = - 6 - - 6[/tex]

This implies that

[tex]0 = 0[/tex]

Hence the equation has infinitely many solutions.
