It cannot exist without a constant, even zero is a constant. So the equation 0=0, still has constants. reguardless of sign, number of variables, etc. you can always argue that there are higher degrees with a constant coefficient of zero. the terms that appear are defined by their constant coefficients.
Example
x=2y/z
X has a constant coefficient of 1
Y has a constant coefficient of 2
Z has a constant coefficient of 1

it definitely can, like v=d/t, (velocity=distance/time) but usually they don't because equations typically relate numbers together and usually a good way to get numbers match up is by introducing a constant.

Here's one:
xy = x + y
