If you're not familiar with the method of exact equations, I think the substitution you need here is \(z=\cos y\), which gives \(\mathrm dz=-\sin y\,\mathrm dy\). This changes the ODE to \[(3\tan x-2z)\sec^2x\,\mathrm dx-\tan x\,\mathrm dz=0\]Another substitution of \(u=\tan x\) gives \(\mathrm du=\sec^2x\,\mathrm dx\), so you now have \[(3u-2z)\,\mathrm du-u\,\mathrm dz=0\iff u\frac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm du}+2z=3u\]which is linear.
