In a Fibonacci Sequence, the following applies:

1,1,2,3,5,8 etc.

Where the following term is a sum of the 2 previous terms.

Relate this to the terms in your question:

1, 1, 2, 5, 8

Goes to:

Y-x, x, y, x+y, x + 2y

Since to get y you add the 2 previous terms

y-x + x = y

y + x = y + x

x + y + y = x + 2y

Hope this helps you :)

You used multiplication of 2 terms which is where you went wrong.
