The solution

You have entered [src]
-4*x + 14*y = -2
$$- 4 x + 14 y = -2$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-4*x+14*y = -2

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-4*x + 14*y = -2

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 4 x = - 14 y - 2$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -4
x = -2 - 14*y / (-4)

We get the answer: x = 1/2 + 7*y/2

     1   7*re(y)   7*I*im(y)
x1 = - + ------- + ---------
     2      2          2    
$$x_{1} = \frac{7 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{2} + \frac{7 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{2} + \frac{1}{2}$$
x1 = 7*re(y)/2 + 7*i*im(y)/2 + 1/2
