3y - yz = 2z
First separate y from 3y - yz = 2z

3y - yz is the same as y * (3 - z) so...

y (3 - z) = 2z

Now divide both sides by (3 - z)
y = 2z / (3 - z)


The answer is y = 2z / (3 - z), the answer you stated is correct except at the end, it isn't - 2, but - z, and also you should include parenthesis around it. Found this helpful? Give it a Brainiest reward if so.
