The solution

You have entered [src]
-17*x + 14*y = 11
$$- 17 x + 14 y = 11$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-17*x+14*y = 11

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-17*x + 14*y = 11

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 17 x = 11 - 14 y$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -17
x = 11 - 14*y / (-17)

We get the answer: x = -11/17 + 14*y/17
Rapid solution [src]
       11   14*re(y)   14*I*im(y)
x1 = - -- + -------- + ----------
       17      17          17    
$$x_{1} = \frac{14 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{17} + \frac{14 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{17} - \frac{11}{17}$$
x1 = 14*re(y)/17 + 14*i*im(y)/17 - 11/17
