    1010 + 2727x = y

    x*y = 1211712117

    x * (1010 + 2727x) = 1211712117

    2727x^2 + 1010x - 1211712117 = 0

    Here's the nasty part.

    In order for this to work, the square root of the quadratic formula must come back with an integer. In fact sqrt (b^2 - 4ac) comes back with

    3635568.29 something. which is not a whole number. Either there is an error in the givens or something, but this question is never going to do what you think it will do.
