The solution

You have entered [src]
-3*x + 4*y = -1
$$- 3 x + 4 y = -1$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-3*x+4*y = -1

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-3*x + 4*y = -1

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 3 x = - 4 y - 1$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -3
x = -1 - 4*y / (-3)

We get the answer: x = 1/3 + 4*y/3

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