The solution

You have entered [src]
-6*x - 2*y = -10
$$- 6 x - 2 y = -10$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-6*x-2*y = -10

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-6*x - 2*y = -10

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 6 x = 2 y - 10$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -6
x = -10 + 2*y / (-6)

We get the answer: x = 5/3 - y/3

$$x_{1} = - \frac{\operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{3} - \frac{i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{3} + \frac{5}{3}$$
x1 = -re(y)/3 - i*im(y)/3 + 5/3
