The solution

You have entered [src]
2*x - 15*y = -1
$$2 x - 15 y = -1$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
2*x-15*y = -1

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-15*y + 2*x = -1

Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$2 x = 15 y - 1$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 2
x = -1 + 15*y / (2)

We get the answer: x = -1/2 + 15*y/2

$$x_{1} = \frac{15 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{2} + \frac{15 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{2} - \frac{1}{2}$$
x1 = 15*re(y)/2 + 15*i*im(y)/2 - 1/2
