Hello,
(\(x+y=5\)) and (\(xy=-7\)),
(\(x=5-y\)) and (\(xy=-7\)),
\((5-y)y=-7\)),
so y is now:
(\(y=\frac{5+\sqrt{53}}{2}\)) and (\(y=\frac{5-\sqrt{53}}{2}\)),
(\(x=5-\frac{5+\sqrt{53}}{2}\)) and (\(y=\frac{5-\sqrt{53}}{2}\)),
(\(x=5-\frac{5+\sqrt{53}}{2}\)) and (\(x=5-\frac{5-\sqrt{53}}{2}\)),
so x is now:
(\(x = \frac{5-\sqrt{53}}{2}\)) and (\(x = 5-\frac{5-\sqrt{53}}{2}\)),
(\(x = \frac{5-\sqrt{53}}{2}\)) and (\(x = \frac{5+\sqrt{53}}{2}\)),
So there are 2 possibilities, namely:
\(x,y=(\frac{5-\sqrt{53}}{2}, \frac{5+\sqrt{53}}{2})\) and the second possibility, namely:
\(x,y=(\frac{5+\sqrt{53}}{2}, \frac{5-\sqrt{53}}{2})\)
