Answer: Infinitely many solutions.

Explanation:

When looking at the system, it is immediately clear that the second equation is simply the first equation with all terms multiplied by 2. Therefore, there are infinite solutions because these are actually the same exact line when graphed and will always equal each other no matter what the values for x and y are.
