[tex]xy =-21~~.....(i)\\\\x+ y=20~~....(ii)\\\\\text{From equation (i):}\\\\xy = -21 \implies y = -\dfrac{21}x~~.....(iii)\\\\\text{Substitute y in equation (ii):}\\\\x - \dfrac{21}x = 20\\\\\implies x^2 -20x -21= 0\\\\\implies x^2 - 21x + x-21=0\\\\\implies x(x-21) +(x-21) =0\\\\\implies (x+1)(x-21)=0\\\\\implies x = -1 ~~\text{or}~~ x =21\\\\\text{Substitute x in equation (iii):}\\\\y = 21 ~~ \text{or}~~ y = -1\\\\\text{Hence,}~ (x,y)=(21,-1) ~~ \text{or}~~ (x,y) = (-1,21)[/tex]
