yx-y+x\left(y-1\right)=1-y
Use the distributive property to multiply y by x-1.
yx-y+xy-x=1-y
Use the distributive property to multiply x by y-1.
2yx-y-x=1-y
Combine yx and xy to get 2yx.
2yx-x=1-y+y
Add y to both sides.
2yx-x=1
Combine -y and y to get 0.
\left(2y-1\right)x=1
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(2y-1\right)x}{2y-1}=\frac{1}{2y-1}
Divide both sides by 2y-1.
x=\frac{1}{2y-1}
Dividing by 2y-1 undoes the multiplication by 2y-1.
yx-y+x\left(y-1\right)=1-y
Use the distributive property to multiply y by x-1.
yx-y+xy-x=1-y
Use the distributive property to multiply x by y-1.
2yx-y-x=1-y
Combine yx and xy to get 2yx.
2yx-y-x+y=1
Add y to both sides.
2yx-x=1
Combine -y and y to get 0.
2yx=1+x
Add x to both sides.
2xy=x+1
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2xy}{2x}=\frac{x+1}{2x}
Divide both sides by 2x.
y=\frac{x+1}{2x}
Dividing by 2x undoes the multiplication by 2x.
y=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2x}
Divide x+1 by 2x.
