Answer:


x = 13 ~~ \text{and}~~ y= 10

Explanation:


~~~~~~2.31 * 10^x = 2200 * 1.05 * 10^y\\\\\implies 2.31 * 10^x = 2310 * 10^y\\\\\implies (10^x)/(10^y) = (2310)/(2.31)\\\\\implies 10^(x-y)=1000\\\\\implies 10^(x-y) = 10^3\\\\\implies x - y = 3


\text{If x = 13 and y = 10 then the difference will be 3.}
