Let   if ε=0   x and y are roots of the equation:   z^2 −(x+y)z+xy=0  or    z^2 −5z+6=0           z^2 −3z−2z+6=0            (z−3)(z−2)=0    ⇒   z=3, or z=2.  let us choose  x=3, y=2 (when ε=0)  Now let   − h+3≤x≤3+h                      −k+2≤y≤2+k   then  (x+h)+(y+k)−(x+y)=ε         or   h+k=𝛆      .....(i)                (x+h)(y+k)−xy= ε  ⇒         (3+h)(2+k)−6=ε         or  3k+2h+hk=𝛆   ...(ii)       ⇒    k+2ε+hk=ε                k+hk+ε=0       as    k=ε−h           ε−h+h(ε−h)+ε=0          −h^2 −h(1−ε)+2ε=0                h^2 +(1−ε)h−2ε=0    h,k= ((−(1−ε)±(√((1−ε)^2 +8ε)))/2)         −h+3≤x≤3+h         −k+2≤y≤2+k .

there might be some 𝛆rror..  someone please confirm..

intuitively it should be something like         3−h≤x≤3+h         2−k≤y≤2+k

$${intuitively}\:{it}\:{should}\:{be}\:{something}\:{like} \\ $$ $$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\mathrm{3}−{h}\leqslant{x}\leqslant\mathrm{3}+{h} \\ $$ $$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\mathrm{2}−{k}\leqslant{y}\leqslant\mathrm{2}+{k} \\ $$

thank you sir, God bless you sir.  but then the 𝛆rror  had to be there.

$${thank}\:{you}\:{sir},\:{God}\:{bless}\:{you}\:{sir}. \\ $$ $${but}\:{then}\:{the}\:\boldsymbol{\epsilon}{rror}\:\:{had}\:{to}\:{be}\:{there}. \\ $$
