Undefined/No solution

Explanation:

You cannot solve this equation. You can tell this at a glance because #-3# can never be equal to #6#, but the equation states that it is. Furthermore, the square root of any number cannot be a negative value (i.e. #-3#). Therefore, you can conclude that there is no solution to this equation.

I hope that helps!
