kx^{2}-\left(kx-x\right)+k-2=0
Use the distributive property to multiply k-1 by x.
kx^{2}-kx+x+k-2=0
To find the opposite of kx-x, find the opposite of each term.
kx^{2}-kx+k-2=-x
Subtract x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
kx^{2}-kx+k=-x+2
Add 2 to both sides.
\left(x^{2}-x+1\right)k=-x+2
Combine all terms containing k.
\left(x^{2}-x+1\right)k=2-x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(x^{2}-x+1\right)k}{x^{2}-x+1}=\frac{2-x}{x^{2}-x+1}
Divide both sides by x^{2}-x+1.
k=\frac{2-x}{x^{2}-x+1}
Dividing by x^{2}-x+1 undoes the multiplication by x^{2}-x+1.
