Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation : 3*x+6*y-(42)= Pull out like factors :

3x + 6y - 42 = 3 • (x + 2y - 14)

Equations which are never true: Solve : 3 = 0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
