The solution

You have entered [src]
-15*x - 12*y = 14
$$- 15 x - 12 y = 14$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-15*x-12*y = 14

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-15*x - 12*y = 14

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 15 x = 12 y + 14$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -15
x = 14 + 12*y / (-15)

We get the answer: x = -14/15 - 4*y/5
Rapid solution [src]
       14   4*re(y)   4*I*im(y)
x1 = - -- - ------- - ---------
       15      5          5    
$$x_{1} = - \frac{4 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{5} - \frac{4 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{5} - \frac{14}{15}$$
x1 = -4*re(y)/5 - 4*i*im(y)/5 - 14/15
