x-y=-3
x-y=4

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x-y=-3 & x-y=4 do not have unique solutions:
x=y-3
(y-3)-y=4
y-3-y=4
-3=4 not a solution.
even if you attempt to graph these 2 equations there is no solution:
+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-6%2C+5%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+y+=+x+%2B3+%2C+y+=+x+-4%29+ (graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -10 to 10, of TWO functions y = x +3 and y = x -4).
