The solution

You have entered [src]
-6*x - 11*y = -20
$$- 6 x - 11 y = -20$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-6*x-11*y = -20

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-11*y - 6*x = -20

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 6 x = 11 y - 20$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -6
x = -20 + 11*y / (-6)

We get the answer: x = 10/3 - 11*y/6
Rapid solution [src]
     10   11*re(y)   11*I*im(y)
x1 = -- - -------- - ----------
     3       6           6     
$$x_{1} = - \frac{11 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{6} - \frac{11 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{6} + \frac{10}{3}$$
x1 = -11*re(y)/6 - 11*i*im(y)/6 + 10/3
