In algebra we are learning about special equations. Which are equations without a solution. Can you please give me an algebraic equation that does not have a solution.

6x + 3 = 6x + 6 has no solution, but is somewhat trivial.
Also if you're restricted to real solutions (ie no imaginary solutions), then many equations such as
x^2 = -1 do not have solutions either.

By definition though, an algebraic expression is a polynomial, and if complex numbers are allowed, then every polynomial has a solution.

Depends on which kind of numbers you accept for solution.
In the case of complex numbers every equation has a solution.

√(-1) = x

The square root of any negative number does not have a real solution, therefore x cannot have any real value in the above equation.

How about x/(x-1) = 1

Or 3x = 3x + 2.
