The solution

You have entered [src]
-16*x - 12*y = 12
$$- 16 x - 12 y = 12$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-16*x-12*y = 12

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-16*x - 12*y = 12

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 16 x = 12 y + 12$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -16
x = 12 + 12*y / (-16)

We get the answer: x = -3/4 - 3*y/4

$$x_{1} = - \frac{3 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{4} - \frac{3 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{4} - \frac{3}{4}$$
x1 = -3*re(y)/4 - 3*i*im(y)/4 - 3/4
