y^{2}-x=1y^{3}x
To multiply powers of the same base, add their exponents. Add 1 and 2 to get 3.
y^{2}-x-1y^{3}x=0
Subtract 1y^{3}x from both sides.
-x+y^{2}-xy^{3}=0
Reorder the terms.
-x-xy^{3}=-y^{2}
Subtract y^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\left(-1-y^{3}\right)x=-y^{2}
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(-y^{3}-1\right)x=-y^{2}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-y^{3}-1\right)x}{-y^{3}-1}=-\frac{y^{2}}{-y^{3}-1}
Divide both sides by -1-y^{3}.
x=-\frac{y^{2}}{-y^{3}-1}
Dividing by -1-y^{3} undoes the multiplication by -1-y^{3}.
x=\frac{y^{2}}{\left(y+1\right)\left(y^{2}-y+1\right)}
Divide -y^{2} by -1-y^{3}.
