I hope this helps you


(x-y)^2=0^2


x^2-2x.y+y^2=0


8-2x.y=0


2x.y=8


x.y=4

(-2). (-2)=4

2.2=4


x-y=-2-(-2)= -2+2=0


x-y=2-2=0


(-2,-2)

(2,2)

Answer: The answer are (a) (2, 2) and (d) (-2, -2).

Step-by-step explanation: The given system of equations is


x^2+y^2=8,~~~~~~~~~~~~(A)\\\\x-y=0.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(B)

We are to select all the correct options from the given that are solutions to the above system.

Let us solve the system of equations as follows:

From equation (B), we have


x-y=0\\\\\Rightarrow x=y.~~~~~~~~~~~(C)

Using equation (C) in equation (B), we have


x^2+y^2=8\\\\\Rightarrow x^2+x^2=8\\\\\Rightarrow2x^2=8\\\\\Rightarrow x^2=4\\\\\Rightarrow x=\pm2,

and from (C) again, we get


y(x=2)=2,\\\\y(x=-2)=-2.

Therefore, the solutions are (2, 2) and (-2, -2).

Thus, (a) and (d) are the correct options.
