The solution

You have entered [src]
-3*x - 6*y = -15
$$- 3 x - 6 y = -15$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-3*x-6*y = -15

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-6*y - 3*x = -15

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 3 x = 6 y - 15$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -3
x = -15 + 6*y / (-3)

We get the answer: x = 5 - 2*y
Rapid solution [src]
x1 = 5 - 2*re(y) - 2*I*im(y)
$$x_{1} = - 2 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)} - 2 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)} + 5$$
x1 = -2*re(y) - 2*i*im(y) + 5
