==============
That's all you can do.
You have 1 equation with 2 variables.
You can solve for y in terms of x (you did) or x in terms of y.
------------
y=-6x-4
You can pick any value for x and find y. --> infinite # of solutions, no unique solution.

there are two unknowns in this equation, which means it can't be solved by itself
in general, you need as many equations as you have unknowns
