Can anyone please help me solve this?

-v + 5 + 6v = 1 + 5v + 3

2 answers

-v + 5 + 6v = 1 + 5v + 3
-6v + 6v = -1
0 = -1
This is a false statement, so there is no solution to your equation.

in general, if the variables drop out, and you end up with a false statement,
like above, there is no solution.

if the variables drop out, and you end up with a TRUE statement, there will be an infinite number of solutions.
e.g. 2(x+1) = 2x + 2
2x + 2 = 2x + 2
2 = 2 , every value of x you choose will be a solution.
Thank you!
