How do i solve this differential equation y'=2y-x over 2x-y

y'=(2y-x)/(2x-y)

Let
y=xv, where
v=v(x), so that
y'=xv'+v. Then the ODE is


xv'+v=(2xv-x)/(2x-xv)

xv'=(2x(v-1))/(x(2-v))-v

xv'=(2(v-1))/(2-v)-(v(2-v))/(2-v)

xv'=(v^2-2)/(2-v)

This is separable, so you have


(2-v)/(v^2-2)\,\mathrm dv=\frac{\mathrm dx}x

Integrate both sides, solving for
v if possible, then replace using
v=\frac yx and solve for
y if possible.
