y=1+\frac{2}{1-\frac{2}{\frac{x}{x}+\frac{2}{x}}}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Multiply 1 times \frac{x}{x}.
y=1+\frac{2}{1-\frac{2}{\frac{x+2}{x}}}
Since \frac{x}{x} and \frac{2}{x} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
y=1+\frac{2}{1-\frac{2x}{x+2}}
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Divide 2 by \frac{x+2}{x} by multiplying 2 by the reciprocal of \frac{x+2}{x}.
y=1+\frac{2}{\frac{x+2}{x+2}-\frac{2x}{x+2}}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Multiply 1 times \frac{x+2}{x+2}.
y=1+\frac{2}{\frac{x+2-2x}{x+2}}
Since \frac{x+2}{x+2} and \frac{2x}{x+2} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
y=1+\frac{2}{\frac{-x+2}{x+2}}
Combine like terms in x+2-2x.
y=1+\frac{2\left(x+2\right)}{-x+2}
Variable x cannot be equal to -2 since division by zero is not defined. Divide 2 by \frac{-x+2}{x+2} by multiplying 2 by the reciprocal of \frac{-x+2}{x+2}.
y=\frac{-x+2}{-x+2}+\frac{2\left(x+2\right)}{-x+2}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Multiply 1 times \frac{-x+2}{-x+2}.
y=\frac{-x+2+2\left(x+2\right)}{-x+2}
Since \frac{-x+2}{-x+2} and \frac{2\left(x+2\right)}{-x+2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
y=\frac{-x+2+2x+4}{-x+2}
Do the multiplications in -x+2+2\left(x+2\right).
y=\frac{x+6}{-x+2}
Combine like terms in -x+2+2x+4.
\frac{x+6}{-x+2}=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
x+6=y\left(-x+2\right)
Variable x cannot be equal to 2 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by -x+2.
x+6=-yx+2y
Use the distributive property to multiply y by -x+2.
x+6+yx=2y
Add yx to both sides.
x+yx=2y-6
Subtract 6 from both sides.
\left(1+y\right)x=2y-6
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(y+1\right)x=2y-6
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(y+1\right)x}{y+1}=\frac{2y-6}{y+1}
Divide both sides by y+1.
x=\frac{2y-6}{y+1}
Dividing by y+1 undoes the multiplication by y+1.
x=\frac{2\left(y-3\right)}{y+1}
Divide -6+2y by y+1.
x=\frac{2\left(y-3\right)}{y+1}\text{, }x\neq 2\text{ and }x\neq -2\text{ and }x\neq 0
Variable x cannot be equal to any of the values 2,-2,0.
