Put $y=ux$, so $y^{\prime }=u+x{u}^{\prime }$. On an interval with $x\ne 0$, substitution and cancellation giveSince $u^2+2u+2=(u+1{)}^2+1>0$, no constant-$u$ solution is lost when separating. Integrateto obtainAfter restoring $u=y/x$, a local implicit general solution isThe inverse tangent is chosen continuously on a solution branch. Using the continuous polar angle of $(x,x+y)$ extends the expression to charts through $x=0$ when the original equation permits it. A differentiable graph cannot pass through $y=x\ne 0$, because there the original equation would require $5x=0$.
