So, x=-y by diving by -1

Then 4(-y) + 4y = 3

so

-4y +4y = 3

0=3

no solution

The same for x

-4x + 4x = 3

so 0=3 and no solution

This is easy: substitute the -x from the bottom for the y in the top one and solve.

you get: 4x-4x=3
which reduces to 0=3

this means that the lines are parallel and are not the same line (they never intersect).

Also, if you end up with a statement like 0=0, the lines are parallel and are the same line.

4x+4y=3
y=-x
There is no solution these are parallel lines. both have slope m=-1
4x-4x=3
0=3

put y=-x in 4x+4y=3
4x-4x=3
0=3
which is not true
so this system of
equation is inconsistent

If y = -x
4x + 4(-1) = 3
4x = 3 +4
4x = 7
x = 7/4

Check:
y = -x
y = -7/4
Solution: (7/4; -7/4), but system is null.
