Question
Solve the system by using the substitution method. For systems that do not have one unique solution, also state the number of solutions and whether the system is inconsistent or the equations are dependent.$x+2 y=4$$4 y=-2 x-8$

Solving Systems of Linear Equations by the Substitution Method
Solve each system using the substitution method. If a system is inconsistent or has dependent equations, say so. $$ \begin{array}{l} y=-4 x \\ 8 x+2 y=4 \end{array} $$
