-1 and -3
This may be determined from the question statements:
x+y=-4
xy=3
from xy+3: x=y/3
therefore from x+y=-4: y/3+y=-4
or
(4/3)y=-4
or
y=-4(3/4)= -3
Given y=-3, then from x+y=-4: x-3=-4
or
x=-1
There are no two real numbers that do. Using complex numbers, these two do: (-3/2 + i√151/2) & (-3/2 - i√151/2) Two numbers that add to -3 and multiply to -40 are -8 & 5 Two numbers that add to 3 and multiply to -40 are 8 & -5 Two complex numbers that add to 3 and multiply to 40 are (3/2 + i√151/2) & (3/2 - i√151/2)
