A) 3x+y=18
B) 3x+y=16

These equations are inconsistent and have no solutions.  If these equations were graphed, it would be two parallel lines.

we have

[tex]3x+y=18[/tex] -------> equation [tex]1[/tex]

solve for y

[tex]y=-3x+18[/tex]

The slope [tex]m=-3[/tex]

[tex]3x+y=16[/tex] -------> equation [tex]2[/tex]

solve for y

[tex]y=-3x+6[/tex]

The slope [tex]m=-3[/tex]

The two slopes are the same, so the lines are parallel.

therefore

It's an inconsistent system of equations that has no solution.

the answer is

The system has no solution
