This is an impossible equation. If sqrt(x) = sqrt(x), and sqrt(x) + 2 = sqrt(x) + 12, then that would mean that 2=12, which is incorrect.
10.3 = 0.6y...divide both sides by 0.6
10.3 / 0.6 = y
17.17 = y <=
1 is in the one-tenths place. If 2 was in this spot, it would be two-tenths.

Hope this helps! :)
This is how I would solve it:
1st # = x 4(x+1)=3x+18
2nd # = x+1 4x+4=3x+18
4x=3x+14
x=14
To check: 15x4=60; 60-42=18. <u>1st # = 14; 2nd # = 15.</u>
