Answer: The value of x could be -0.5 (negative) and the value of y can be 0.5 (posititve)

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we add -0.5 to 0.5 or vice versa then we get the answer as 0 that is a whole number.

If we subtract -0.5 to 0.5 or vice versa then we get the answer as -1 and that is not a whole number.

The last condition that they are not whole numbers, so Absolutely! they can never be stated as a whole number.
