Anyone can contribute an answer, even non-tutors.
What is xy, I don't know :)
Since |x - y| = |-(y - x)| = |-1||y - x| = |y - x|,
|y - x||y - x| - (x + y)² = 28
(y - x)² - (x + y)² = 28
y² - 2xy + x² - (x² + 2xy + y²) = 28
-4xy = 28
xy = 28/-4 = -7
See 1 Answer
(Y-x)^2 - (x+y)^2 = 2x . 2y = 28 => xy = 7
