Answer:

yyy = xxx + 151515

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you want to swim 151515 minutes longer one day at practice (note this time is actually 105 days), you simply need to swim the same amount of time as your friend, plus the extra time. Hence, your time will be equal to your friends time plus the extra time you plan to swim.
