Question

How do you solve `w+3=w+6`?

Answer 1

There is no solution to this equation. The solution set is empty, as no value of `w` can make it true.

Explanation:

If you treat this in the usual manner of collecting like terms, you quickly get the equation

`w-w=6-3`

or

`0=3`

which of course, is false. So, no solution exists to this particular equation.
