The solution

You have entered [src]
-16*x - 19*y = -4
$$- 16 x - 19 y = -4$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-16*x-19*y = -4

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-19*y - 16*x = -4

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 16 x = 19 y - 4$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -16
x = -4 + 19*y / (-16)

We get the answer: x = 1/4 - 19*y/16
Rapid solution [src]
     1   19*re(y)   19*I*im(y)
x1 = - - -------- - ----------
     4      16          16    
$$x_{1} = - \frac{19 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{16} - \frac{19 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{16} + \frac{1}{4}$$
x1 = -19*re(y)/16 - 19*i*im(y)/16 + 1/4
