Find the general solution of the Euler homogenous equation

"Find the general solution of the Euler homogenous equation
$frac{dy}{dx}=frac{2y-x}{2x-y}$."



Through my working out, after introducing a new variable v, where y=xv, I end up having to solve the following:



$frac{1}{2}intfrac{1}{v-1}dv-frac{3}{2}intfrac{1}{v+1}dv$ = $intfrac{1}{x} dx$



This leads me to the result of



$frac{3}{2}lnfrac{(v-1)^3}{(v+1)}=ln(x)+c$



Before I begin to rearrange this, to get in terms of y, could someone tell me if I am going in the correct direction because it looks as though I'm going to end up with an $e^c$ term, and I am unsure whether this is correct or not.



Ideally, could someone provide an answer they get from solving this problem - just so I can see if I am going in the correct direction/know if I am correct once I reach an answer? Thank you.

    Shouldn't be $$frac{1}{2}lnfrac{(v-1)}{(v+1)^3}=ln(x)+c$$

Solutions found from



$$intfrac{g'(y)),dy}{g(y)}=intfrac{f'(x)),dy}{f(x)}implies log|g(y)|=log|f(x)|+c$$



are equivalent to



$$g(y)=pm e^c f(x).$$



But as $c$ is arbitrary, this is also expressed by



$$g(y)=cf(x).$$





Notice that in the event that $g(y)=0$ or $f(x)=0$ somewhere, we have a singularity, which cannot be crossed. This means that the solution can be made of several pieces, with different integration constants.

    $$frac{1}{2}intfrac{1}{v-1}dv-frac{3}{2}intfrac{1}{v+1}dv = intfrac{1}{x} dx$$



    Integrating we get,



    $$frac{1}{2}log{(|v-1|)}-frac{3}{2}log{(|v+1|)} = log{|x|}+log{c}$$



    Simplifying,



    $$frac{1}{2}log{left(left|frac{v-1}{(v+1)^3}right|right)}=log{(|cx|)}$$



    Further simplification will give us
    $$frac{v-1}{(v+1)^3}={(cx)}^2$$



    Here $log$ denotes the logarithmic function to the base $e$.
