The solution

You have entered [src]
9*x - y = 17
$$9 x - y = 17$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
9*x-1*y = 17

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-y + 9*x = 17

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$9 x = y + 17$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 9
x = 17 + y / (9)

We get the answer: x = 17/9 + y/9
Rapid solution [src]
     17   re(y)   I*im(y)
x1 = -- + ----- + -------
     9      9        9   
$$x_{1} = \frac{\operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{9} + \frac{i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{9} + \frac{17}{9}$$
x1 = re(y)/9 + i*im(y)/9 + 17/9
