    The given system of equation has no solution.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    step 1:

    The given equations are 4x + 2y = 14 and 2x + y = 7.

    step 2:

    Let 4x + 2y = 14 be the first equation.

    Let 2x + y = 7 be the second equation.

    The solution (x, y) can be determined by solving the two equations, if only the given two equations are different.

    step 3:

    In first equation taking 2 out as a common factor on both sides, the equation becomes:

    2 (2x + y) = 2 (7)

    So, the first equation resembles the second one.

    step 4:

    Since both the equations are similar, they cannot be solved to get a solution. Therefore, the system of equation has no solution which is also known as inconsistent.
