y = 3x + 4
y = 3x + 7

3x + 4 = 3x + 7
3x - 3x = 7 - 4
0 = 3.....incorrect....this system has no solutions because ur lines are parallel and they never cross.

or look at it this way..
y = 3x + 4
y = 3x + 7

both have slopes of 3...but the y intercepts are different......when this happens, it means the lines are parallel with no solution
