The solution

You have entered [src]
-17*x + y = -11
$$- 17 x + y = -11$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-17*x+1*y = -11

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

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

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