Then, to follow the form $\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}+P(x)y=f(x)$ I get $\displaystyle \frac{dx}{dy}-(\frac{1}{y})x=2y$ (Because I assume, x=y and y=x)
Integrating factor is $\displaystyle e^{\int\frac{1}{y}dy} = e^{ln|y|} = y$
After that, I solved:
$\displaystyle \frac{d}{dy}(xy) = 2y^2$
$\displaystyle xy = \frac{2y^3}{3}+C1$
$\displaystyle x = \frac{2y^2}{3}+C2$
