Start by writing down the given equations: \( y_1 = \frac{x - 3}{5} \), \( y_2 = \frac{x - 5}{4} \), and the condition \( y_1 - y_2 = 1 \).
Substitute the expressions for \( y_1 \) and \( y_2 \) into the equation \( y_1 - y_2 = 1 \) to get: \( \frac{x - 3}{5} - \frac{x - 5}{4} = 1 \).
Find a common denominator for the fractions on the left side, which is 20, and rewrite the equation as: \( \frac{4(x - 3)}{20} - \frac{5(x - 5)}{20} = 1 \).
Combine the fractions over the common denominator: \( \frac{4(x - 3) - 5(x - 5)}{20} = 1 \).
Multiply both sides of the equation by 20 to eliminate the denominator, then simplify and solve the resulting linear equation for \( x \).

Substitution Method

The substitution method involves replacing one variable with an equivalent expression from another equation. Here, y1 and y2 are given in terms of x, so you substitute these expressions into the equation y1 - y2 = 1 to form an equation with only x, simplifying the solving process.
