The solution

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

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

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

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