4*x - y = -3
$$4 x - y = -3$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
4*x-1*y = -3

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-y + 4*x = -3

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$4 x = y - 3$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 4
x = -3 + y / (4)

We get the answer: x = -3/4 + y/4

$$x_{1} = \frac{\operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{4} + \frac{i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{4} - \frac{3}{4}$$
x1 = re(y)/4 + i*im(y)/4 - 3/4
