In a textbook of mine, there's a step which I can't get my head around.

B*E*X = A*(Y - E*X)

rearranges to

X = [A/(A+B)](Y/E)

I can't figure out how to do it. Could anyone walk me through it?

Thanks

p.s. Bonus points for knowing what the last equation is (A and B would normally be alpha and beta)
 
This isn't homework. Appendix 8 in the third edition of Microeconomics by Jeffrey Perloff, if you must know.

I've got an exam tomorrow :)
