I need to solve the following ODE:

Regarding 3:
Did you mean
$$y'=e^{ \frac{x+y}{2x-y+1}}+\frac{3y-1}{3x+1}?$$
The absence of a closing parenthesis in the numerator of the argument of the exponential function makes your meaning unclear.
 
If it is indeed what Ackbach says, try letting $u = \dfrac{x+y}{2x-y+1}$.

Nice! The result is separable. I get
$$\frac{e^{-u}}{u+1}\,u'=\frac{1}{3x+1}.$$

Of course, the integral on the left is not elementary. Oh, well.
