The solution

You have entered [src]
3*x - 20*y = -4
$$3 x - 20 y = -4$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
3*x-20*y = -4

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-20*y + 3*x = -4

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$3 x = 20 y - 4$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 3
x = -4 + 20*y / (3)

We get the answer: x = -4/3 + 20*y/3

$$x_{1} = \frac{20 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{3} + \frac{20 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{3} - \frac{4}{3}$$
x1 = 20*re(y)/3 + 20*i*im(y)/3 - 4/3
