Step 1For x>0,x+y(x)2xy(x)y(x)=y(x) is equivalent to
x+x2[(y(x)x)2y(x)xy(x)]=y(x)=x+x[(y(x)x)2y(x)xy(x)],
which is equivalent to
y(x)x=1+[(y(x)x)2y(x)xy(x)].
Let z(x)=yxx, such that z(12)=2, and
y(x)=xz(x)+z(x)
z(x)=1+z(x)2xz(x)z(x)z(x)2=1+xz(x)z(x).
Step 2
Since x>0, we have that z(x)z(x)<0, but since
xz(x)z(x)0, we have that 1+xz(x)z(x)1, so z(x)1. Therefore, it is the case that z(x)<0. With this in mind, the differential equation implies
[z(x)1]2=xz(x)z(x),
which is equivalent to
1x=z(x)[z(x)1]2z(x)=(1z(x)1+1[z(x)1]2)z(x)=[ln(z1)1z1](x).
Step 3
Given the condition that x>0 and z(x)1, we have that
ln[z(x)1]1z(x)1=ln(x)+C,
which is equivalent to
[z(x)1]e1z(x)1=eCx.
Step 4
Since z(12)=2, we have that 2eC=e1, so eC=12e. So we have that 12ex=[z(x)1]e1z(x)1,
which is equivalent to 1z(x)1e1z(x)1=2ex
given the restrictions. Here, we can use the Lambert W function, obtaining us that
1z(x)1=W(2ex),
which is equivalent to
z(x)=1+1W(2ex),
which is equivalent to y(x)=x[1+1W(2ex)].

Step 1
After squaring:
y2+x22xy=y2(xy)dydx
x2y=ydydx
(x2y)dx+ydy=0
Step 2
Let y=λx since every term is of linear degree. Then dy=xdλ+λdx.
(12λ)dx+λ(xdλ+λdx)=(λ1)2dx+λxdλ=0
dxx=(λ+11)dλ(λ1)2
ln{x}=ln{|λ1|}+1λ1+c1
x=c2e1λ1λ1=c2xexyxyx
Cancelling x:
yx=c2xexyx
