The solution

You have entered [src]
20*x + y = -5
$$20 x + y = -5$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
20*x+1*y = -5

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

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

We get the answer: x = -1/4 - y/20

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