The solution

You have entered [src]
6*x - 17*y = -11
$$6 x - 17 y = -11$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
6*x-17*y = -11

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-17*y + 6*x = -11

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$6 x = 17 y - 11$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 6
x = -11 + 17*y / (6)

We get the answer: x = -11/6 + 17*y/6
Rapid solution [src]
       11   17*re(y)   17*I*im(y)
x1 = - -- + -------- + ----------
       6       6           6     
$$x_{1} = \frac{17 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{6} + \frac{17 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{6} - \frac{11}{6}$$
x1 = 17*re(y)/6 + 17*i*im(y)/6 - 11/6
