The solution

You have entered [src]
20*x + 18*y = -9
$$20 x + 18 y = -9$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
20*x+18*y = -9

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
18*y + 20*x = -9

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$20 x = - 18 y - 9$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 20
x = -9 - 18*y / (20)

We get the answer: x = -9/20 - 9*y/10
Rapid solution [src]
       9    9*re(y)   9*I*im(y)
x1 = - -- - ------- - ---------
       20      10         10   
$$x_{1} = - \frac{9 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{10} - \frac{9 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{10} - \frac{9}{20}$$
x1 = -9*re(y)/10 - 9*i*im(y)/10 - 9/20
