It might, but not optimally. Ideally, just get another identical 4gb module to get to 8gb so you are running dual channel.

Mixing the 8gb and 4gb should still work, but you will probably only run single channel.

yes it will support both ram in the slot, with a trade off on speed. it will run on DDR3 1333mhz instead because the system will drop the speed to the lowest speed one for compability.

you have like 3 scenarios:
50% works just fine
25% it will work, but at lowest speed. Some of them can be manually re-configured to full speed, but it takes some tinkering.
~15% have bigger issues, it really depends on combination of other parts if you can resolve it or not.
~10% just don't boot

Numbers are not checked anywhere, but they seem to be more/less fine according to my experiance.
if you do pick not-matching stick, make sure to do so in shop that accept replacements.
(for laptop I did take it to shop, inserted it with them on site and we did check & replace same day)

It will be a yes, just leave that 4gigs and use 16gigs if you want, buy a ram kit (2x4gb) if you want the 8 gigs, and make sure they're the same speed.
