Find the divisor

can you finish the problem……..

Given equation is \(xy-6(x+y)=0\)

\(\Rightarrow xy-6x-6y=0\)

\(\Rightarrow xy-6x-6y+36=36\)

\(\Rightarrow (x-6)(y-6)=3^2 \times 2^2\)

Now the numbers of factpr of \(36=9\) i.e \(\{1,2,3,4,6,9,12,18,36\}\)

Thus we may say that 36 has 9 positive divisors, and 9 negative. and x=0 and y=0 is also a solution

the given condition \(x\leq y\) ,so there are 10 non-negetive solution
