Answer:

no solution.

Explanation:

1) in order to explain, the given system should be resolved:

\left \{ {{2y=6x+4} \atop {y=3x-4}} \right. \ < = > \ \left \{ {{y=3x+2} \atop {y=3x-4}} \right.

2) the both equations have the same slope (it is 3), it means the given lines are parallel, then no solution.
