y\left(3x-1\right)=2x
Variable x cannot be equal to \frac{1}{3} since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3x-1.
3yx-y=2x
Use the distributive property to multiply y by 3x-1.
3yx-y-2x=0
Subtract 2x from both sides.
3yx-2x=y
Add y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
\left(3y-2\right)x=y
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(3y-2\right)x}{3y-2}=\frac{y}{3y-2}
Divide both sides by 3y-2.
x=\frac{y}{3y-2}
Dividing by 3y-2 undoes the multiplication by 3y-2.
x=\frac{y}{3y-2}\text{, }x\neq \frac{1}{3}
Variable x cannot be equal to \frac{1}{3}.
