Answer:

There is one solution.

Explanation:

x = - 1/6

y = 0

It can be solved simultaneously

6x - y = -1

6x + y = -1

Subtract equation two from equation one

-2y = 0

Divide both sides by-2

y = 0/-2

y = 0

Substitute 0 for y in either of the equations to get x

6x - 0 = -1

6x = -1

Divide both sides by 6

x = -1/6
