Don't solve this absolute value equation the usual way!
Learn how to use the definition of the absolute value, i.e. abs(x-a) represents the distance between x and a on the number line, to solve the equation abs(x-5)+abs(x+1)=6. This equation has infinitely many answers but it's not all real numbers!
