The solution

You have entered [src]
20*x + 5*y = -3
$$20 x + 5 y = -3$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
20*x+5*y = -3

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

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$20 x = - 5 y - 3$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 20
x = -3 - 5*y / (20)

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

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