Question
$$6^2-(-6^2) = 0$$
Answer
This equation has no solution.
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} 6^2-(-6^2) &= 0&& \text{simplify left side} \\[1 em]36-(-36) &= 0&& \\[1 em]36+36 &= 0&& \\[1 em]72 &= 0&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
Since the statement $ \color{red}{ 72 = 0 } $ is FALSE, we conclude that the equation has no solution.
