Find all pairs of real numbers such that x + y = 10 and x^2 + y^2 = 56 - 2xy.
For example, to enter the solutions and , you would enter "(2,4),(-3,9)" (without the quotation marks).

Hmmmmmm....

     x+y = 10    and    (x+y)2 = 56     doesn't seem to have a solution.....am I missing something? cheeky

Hmm idk if its just me but the first equation cant be simplyfied and for the 2nd one i got it from x^2+y^2=56-2xy -> 2xy+x^2+y^2=56 ->xy+x^2+y^2=24. Now i dont think you can simplify it anymore so.....

2xy+x^2+y^2=56 ->xy+1/2 x^2+1/2 y^2=28
