<span>2y/2=5x+1/2
y=5x/2+1/2
no it's not a direct variation because of 1/2</span>
We can solve this by setting up 2 equations. We can use any letters like. For now, I'll use x and y.
So now we know that x - y = 0.7 and x + y = 1.
Now we can eliminate one of the letters by adding or subtracting one equation from the other. I am going to eliminate y by adding the two together (the y and the -y cancel).
This gives us 2x = 1.7, and so x = 1.7 ÷ 2 = 0.85
Finally, we can substitute x for 0.85 back into one of the original equations to figure out what y equals. I'm going to use x + y = 1.
So now we have 0.85 + y = 1, so y = 1 - 0.85 = 0.15
The numbers, therefore, are 0.85 and 0.15 (you can check by using the other equation).
Hope this helps!

Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
Add similar elements: -5x+3x=-2x
-2x+15=-3
Subtract 15 from both sides
-2x + 15-15=-3-15
Simplify
-2x=-18
Divide both sides by -2
-21/-2 = -18/-2
Simplify
x=9
