The solution

You have entered [src]
-12*x - 8*y = 13
$$- 12 x - 8 y = 13$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-12*x-8*y = 13

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-12*x - 8*y = 13

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 12 x = 8 y + 13$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -12
x = 13 + 8*y / (-12)

We get the answer: x = -13/12 - 2*y/3
Rapid solution [src]
       13   2*re(y)   2*I*im(y)
x1 = - -- - ------- - ---------
       12      3          3    
$$x_{1} = - \frac{2 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{3} - \frac{2 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{3} - \frac{13}{12}$$
x1 = -2*re(y)/3 - 2*i*im(y)/3 - 13/12
