Making the change of variable y = 1 z we have the new version
d y d x + y - x y 3 = 0 x - z 2 + z z z 3 = 0 or
x - z 2 + z z = 0
Now calling ξ = z 2 we have
x - ξ + 1 2 ξ = 0
Solving for ξ we obtain easily
ξ = 1 2 + x + C e 2 x = z 2 then
z = ± 1 2 + x + C e 2 x = 1 y then finally
y = ± 1 1 2 + x + C e 2 x
