y=xp+x\sqrt{1+p^{2}}
Use the distributive property to multiply x by p+\sqrt{1+p^{2}}.
xp+x\sqrt{1+p^{2}}=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\left(p+\sqrt{1+p^{2}}\right)x=y
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(\sqrt{p^{2}+1}+p\right)x=y
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(\sqrt{p^{2}+1}+p\right)x}{\sqrt{p^{2}+1}+p}=\frac{y}{\sqrt{p^{2}+1}+p}
Divide both sides by p+\sqrt{1+p^{2}}.
x=\frac{y}{\sqrt{p^{2}+1}+p}
Dividing by p+\sqrt{1+p^{2}} undoes the multiplication by p+\sqrt{1+p^{2}}.
x=y\left(\sqrt{p^{2}+1}-p\right)
Divide y by p+\sqrt{1+p^{2}}.
