For some constant real numbers $p, k$ and $a$ consider the following system of linear equations in $x$ and $y$:

$px - 4y = 2$

$3x + ky = a$

A necessary condition for the system to have no solution for $(x, y)$ is

Let a and b be natural number. If $a^2 + ab + a = 14$ and $b^2 + ab + b = 28$, then $(2a + b)$ equals
