The solution

You have entered [src]
18*x + 10*y = -16
$$18 x + 10 y = -16$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
18*x+10*y = -16

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
10*y + 18*x = -16

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$18 x = - 10 y - 16$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 18
x = -16 - 10*y / (18)

We get the answer: x = -8/9 - 5*y/9

$$x_{1} = - \frac{5 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{9} - \frac{5 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{9} - \frac{8}{9}$$
x1 = -5*re(y)/9 - 5*i*im(y)/9 - 8/9
