system%28xy+=+-546%2Cx-y+=+-29%29

Solve by substitution.  Then use quadratic formula.
There are no real solutions.
There are 2 complex solutions:

solution #1:  x=%28-29+-+i%2Asqrt%281343%29%29%2F2,y=%2829+-+i%2Asqrt%281343%29%29%2F2 

solution #2:  x=%28-29+%2B+i%2Asqrt%281343%29%29%2F2,y=%2829+%2B+i%2Asqrt%281343%29%29%2F2
