The solution

You have entered [src]
-9*x - 12*y = -19
$$- 9 x - 12 y = -19$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-9*x-12*y = -19

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-12*y - 9*x = -19

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 9 x = 12 y - 19$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -9
x = -19 + 12*y / (-9)

We get the answer: x = 19/9 - 4*y/3
Rapid solution [src]
     19   4*re(y)   4*I*im(y)
x1 = -- - ------- - ---------
     9       3          3    
$$x_{1} = - \frac{4 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{3} - \frac{4 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{3} + \frac{19}{9}$$
x1 = -4*re(y)/3 - 4*i*im(y)/3 + 19/9
