The solution

You have entered [src]
-15*x - 3*y = 7
$$- 15 x - 3 y = 7$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-15*x-3*y = 7

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-15*x - 3*y = 7

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 15 x = 3 y + 7$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -15
x = 7 + 3*y / (-15)

We get the answer: x = -7/15 - y/5

       7    re(y)   I*im(y)
x1 = - -- - ----- - -------
       15     5        5   
$$x_{1} = - \frac{\operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{5} - \frac{i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{5} - \frac{7}{15}$$
x1 = -re(y)/5 - i*im(y)/5 - 7/15
