y=mx-3x-\left(m-2\right)^{2}+5
Use the distributive property to multiply m-3 by x.
y=mx-3x-\left(m^{2}-4m+4\right)+5
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(m-2\right)^{2}.
y=mx-3x-m^{2}+4m-4+5
To find the opposite of m^{2}-4m+4, find the opposite of each term.
y=mx-3x-m^{2}+4m+1
Add -4 and 5 to get 1.
mx-3x-m^{2}+4m+1=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
mx-3x+4m+1=y+m^{2}
Add m^{2} to both sides.
mx-3x+1=y+m^{2}-4m
Subtract 4m from both sides.
mx-3x=y+m^{2}-4m-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
\left(m-3\right)x=y+m^{2}-4m-1
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(m-3\right)x}{m-3}=\frac{y+m^{2}-4m-1}{m-3}
Divide both sides by m-3.
x=\frac{y+m^{2}-4m-1}{m-3}
Dividing by m-3 undoes the multiplication by m-3.
