ax^{2}+2x^{3}=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
ax^{2}=y-2x^{3}
Subtract 2x^{3} from both sides.
x^{2}a=y-2x^{3}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{x^{2}a}{x^{2}}=\frac{y-2x^{3}}{x^{2}}
Divide both sides by x^{2}.
a=\frac{y-2x^{3}}{x^{2}}
Dividing by x^{2} undoes the multiplication by x^{2}.
a=-2x+\frac{y}{x^{2}}
Divide y-2x^{3} by x^{2}.
