5y = - x + 8
y = (-1/5)x + 8/3
2x + 10y = - 4
10y = - 2x - 4
y = (-1/5)x - 2/5
Lines are parallel

Given x+5y = 8 .......(1)
2x+10y = -4......(2)
multiplying eq 1 by 2 we get..
2x+10y =16 ........(3)
substracting eq 1 and eq 3
2x+10y =16
2x+10y =-4
- - +
---------------------------
0 =20 20/0 =infinite
so the answer choice are 3

x+5y=8
x=8-5y
-2x-10y=4
-2(8-5y)-10y=4
-16 +10y -10y =4
-16=4
Therefore has no solution
3. lines are parallel

3. (Why?)
x + 5y = 8
-or-
x = 8 - 5y
-2x - 10y = 4
divide by -2
x + 5y = -2
but remember that x = 8 - 5y so replace 'x' with "8 - 5y" and...
8 - 5y + 5y = -2
-or-
8 = -2
This is clearly not true, so the lines do not cross (and must be parallel).

The lines are parallel because the equations are identical except the intercept. I.e., the second equation can be written as:
x + 5y = -2
So they have the same slope but a different intercept.
