To determine the number of solutions to this system of linear equations, we can rewrite the second equation as 2x+y=4 and compare it to the first equation 2x+y=6.
It is clear that these two equations are not equivalent, meaning they represent two parallel lines. Since parallel lines never intersect, there are no common solutions to this system of linear equations.
Therefore, the system of equations 2x+y=6 and 4x+2y=8 has no solution.
