xy = 192
x + y = -28
y = -28 - x
---
xy = 192
x(-28 - x) = 192
-28x - xx - 192 = 0
-xx - 28x - 192 = 0
---
the above quadratic equation is in standard form, with a=-1, b=-28 and c=-192
---
to solve the quadratic equation, by using the quadratic formula, copy and paste this:
-1 -28 -192
into this solver: https://sooeet.com/math/quadratic-equation-solver.php
---
the quadratic has two real roots at:
---
x = -16
x = -12
---
y = -28 - x
y = -28 - -16
y = -28 + 16
y = -12
---
answer:
x = -16
y = -12
