First move the (Y) to the other side of the equal sign,

Then subtract add (15) on both sides

Since a variable can't be negative just divide by (-1) on both sides,

The answer would be,

Hope this helped

X is 7 more than y
x>y then
difference betwen squares is 161 so
x=7+y
and
x²-y²=161
so
x=7+y
sub that for x in other equation
(7+y)²-y²=161
y²+14y+49-y²=161
14y+49=161
minus 49 both sides
14y=112
divide both sides by 14
y=8
sub back
x=7+y
x=7+8
x=15
the numbers are 15 and 8

I'm took lazy to explain it step by step sorry, but I'm positive that's the correct answer.
Answer:
Jo's age = x = 8 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Jo's age = x
Jo's mother, Anne's age = 4x
In four years time, Anne will be three times as old as Jo.
Jo's age =3( x + 4)
Jo's mother, Anne's age = 4x + 4
How old is Jo?
Equate Jo's age and his mother's age
3(x + 4) = 4x + 4
3x + 12 = 4x + 4
3x - 4x = 4 - 12
-x = - 8
Divide both sides by -1
x = 8
Therefore,
Jo's age = x = 8 years
