There are an infinite number of answers to this question. The smallest answer where both numbers are positive integers is x=9, y=1.
x can be equal to any number greater than 9 which leaves a difference between itself and 15 equal to a multiple of 3, while in this case, y would be equal to anything by which 3 multiplies to make up the difference between the two numbers, and subtracts to equal 15.
Other positive integer values that x and y can equal are: x=12 y=3, x=15, y=5, x=18, y=7.
Therefore, as the inequality x is increased by 3 for any number greater than 12, the inequality y can be increased by 2.
