    x.y = x:y

    => x.y.y = x

    => xy2 = x

    => y2 = 1

    => y = \(\pm1\)

    * x + y = xy

    \(\Rightarrow\dfrac{x+y}{xy}=\dfrac{x}{xy}+\dfrac{y}{xy}=\dfrac{1}{y}+\dfrac{1}{x}=1\)

    If y = 1

    => 1/x = 1 - 1 = 0 --> nonsense

    If y = -1

    => 1/x = 1 - [-1] = 2

    => 1/x = 2

    => x = 1/2

    So \(\left(x,y\right)=\left(\dfrac{1}{2};-1\right)\)
