y\left(y+1\right)=2y-x
Multiply both sides of the equation by y+1.
y^{2}+y=2y-x
Use the distributive property to multiply y by y+1.
2y-x=y^{2}+y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-x=y^{2}+y-2y
Subtract 2y from both sides.
-x=y^{2}-y
Combine y and -2y to get -y.
\frac{-x}{-1}=\frac{y\left(y-1\right)}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
x=\frac{y\left(y-1\right)}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
x=-y\left(y-1\right)
Divide y\left(-1+y\right) by -1.
