To solve these equations, we rewrite one equation in terms of x and substitute it to the other.

First equation:
x+2y = 13
y = 13/2 - x/2

Second Equation:
4x+8y=-9

Substitute the first equation to the second equation:
4x + 8(13/2 - x/2) = -9

Solving the equation will cancel x. Therefore, the correct answer is C, no solutions.
