Let these two numbers be
and
. Their sum is
, their difference is -4, and their product is -29:



Add the first two equations together to eliminate
:

Then

Just to confirm this is correct, check their product:

4 x 1/8w -> 4/8 w -> 1/2 w
1/2w -3/5 x
Hope this helps!
Add both sides by 16
so you'll have x^4 =16
take the 4th root of both sides and you'll get x= 2
