yx^{2}+yx+2x+4=0
Use the distributive property to multiply y+2 by x.
yx^{2}+yx+4=-2x
Subtract 2x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
yx^{2}+yx=-2x-4
Subtract 4 from both sides.
\left(x^{2}+x\right)y=-2x-4
Combine all terms containing y.
\frac{\left(x^{2}+x\right)y}{x^{2}+x}=\frac{-2x-4}{x^{2}+x}
Divide both sides by x^{2}+x.
y=\frac{-2x-4}{x^{2}+x}
Dividing by x^{2}+x undoes the multiplication by x^{2}+x.
y=-\frac{2\left(x+2\right)}{x\left(x+1\right)}
Divide -2x-4 by x^{2}+x.
