zy\left(2x+1\right)=3x-2
Variable x cannot be equal to -\frac{1}{2} since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 2x+1.
2zyx+zy=3x-2
Use the distributive property to multiply zy by 2x+1.
2zyx+zy-3x=-2
Subtract 3x from both sides.
2zyx-3x=-2-zy
Subtract zy from both sides.
\left(2zy-3\right)x=-2-zy
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(2yz-3\right)x=-yz-2
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(2yz-3\right)x}{2yz-3}=\frac{-yz-2}{2yz-3}
Divide both sides by 2yz-3.
x=\frac{-yz-2}{2yz-3}
Dividing by 2yz-3 undoes the multiplication by 2yz-3.
x=-\frac{yz+2}{2yz-3}
Divide -2-zy by 2yz-3.
x=-\frac{yz+2}{2yz-3}\text{, }x\neq -\frac{1}{2}
Variable x cannot be equal to -\frac{1}{2}.
zy\left(2x+1\right)=3x-2
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2x+1.
2zyx+zy=3x-2
Use the distributive property to multiply zy by 2x+1.
\left(2zx+z\right)y=3x-2
Combine all terms containing y.
\left(2xz+z\right)y=3x-2
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(2xz+z\right)y}{2xz+z}=\frac{3x-2}{2xz+z}
Divide both sides by 2zx+z.
y=\frac{3x-2}{2xz+z}
Dividing by 2zx+z undoes the multiplication by 2zx+z.
y=\frac{3x-2}{z\left(2x+1\right)}
Divide 3x-2 by 2zx+z.
