The solution

You have entered [src]
-6*x - y = 14
$$- 6 x - y = 14$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-6*x-1*y = 14

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-y - 6*x = 14

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 6 x = y + 14$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -6
x = 14 + y / (-6)

We get the answer: x = -7/3 - y/6

$$x_{1} = - \frac{\operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{6} - \frac{i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{6} - \frac{7}{3}$$
x1 = -re(y)/6 - i*im(y)/6 - 7/3
