To solve this equation, we need to first simplify it by finding a common denominator:
(4/y) - 2 - (2/y) = 3 - y/(y^2 - 2y)
Now, let's combine like terms:
(4/y - 2 - 2/y) = 3 - y/(y^2 - 2y)
(2/y) = 3 - y/(y^2 - 2y)
Now, let's get rid of the denominator by multiplying both sides by y:
2 = 3y - y^2/(y^2 - 2y)
Next, let's simplify the equation by multiplying both sides by (y^2 - 2y):
2(y^2 - 2y) = 3y(y^2 - 2y) - y^2
Expand both sides:
2y^2 - 4y = 3y^3 - 6y^2 - y^2
Combine like terms:
2y^2 - 4y = 3y^3 - 7y^2
Rearrange the equation to set it equal to 0:
3y^3 - 7y^2 - 2y^2 + 4y = 0
3y^3 - 9y^2 + 4y = 0
Now, we can factor out a y:
y(3y^2 - 9y + 4) = 0
Now, solve for y using the quadratic formula:
y = (-(-9) ± √((-9)^2 - 434)) / (2*3)
y = (9 ± √(81 - 48)) / 6
y = (9 ± √33) / 6
Therefore, the solutions for y are:
y = (9 + √33) / 6 or y = (9 - √33) / 6.
