The solution

You have entered [src]
-14*x - 16*y = 14
$$- 14 x - 16 y = 14$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-14*x-16*y = 14

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-16*y - 14*x = 14

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 14 x = 16 y + 14$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -14
x = 14 + 16*y / (-14)

We get the answer: x = -1 - 8*y/7
Rapid solution [src]
          8*re(y)   8*I*im(y)
x1 = -1 - ------- - ---------
             7          7    
$$x_{1} = - \frac{8 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{7} - \frac{8 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{7} - 1$$
x1 = -8*re(y)/7 - 8*i*im(y)/7 - 1
