The solution

You have entered [src]
-10*x - 16*y = -6
$$- 10 x - 16 y = -6$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-10*x-16*y = -6

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-16*y - 10*x = -6

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 10 x = 16 y - 6$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -10
x = -6 + 16*y / (-10)

We get the answer: x = 3/5 - 8*y/5

x1 = - - ------- - ---------
     5      5          5    
$$x_{1} = - \frac{8 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{5} - \frac{8 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$$
x1 = -8*re(y)/5 - 8*i*im(y)/5 + 3/5
