3%282z-1%29=6z%2B5 Start with the given equation.


6z-3=6z%2B5 Distribute.


6z=6z%2B5%2B3 Add 3 to both sides.


6z-6z=5%2B3 Subtract 6z from both sides.


0z=5%2B3 Combine like terms on the left side.


0z=8 Combine like terms on the right side.


0=8 Simplify.


Since this equation is NEVER true for any z value, this means that there are no solutions.
