To solve the system of equations given by:
- \( x^2 + 4y = 8 \)
- \( x + y = 2 \)
We can first solve the second equation for \( y \):
\[ y = 2 - x \]
Now, we can substitute this expression for \( y \) in the first equation:
\[ x^2 + 4(2 - x) = 8 \]
Expanding this gives:
\[ x^2 + 8 - 4x = 8 \]
Next, we can simplify this equation:
\[ x^2 - 4x + 8 - 8 = 0 \]
This simplifies to:
\[ x^2 - 4x = 0 \]
Now, we can factor it:
\[ x(x - 4) = 0 \]
Setting each factor to zero gives us:
\[ x = 0 \quad \text{or} \quad x = 4 \]
Next, we substitute these values back into the equation \( y = 2 - x \) to find the corresponding \( y \) values.
- If \( x = 0 \):
\[ y = 2 - 0 = 2 \]
So one solution is \( (0, 2) \).
- If \( x = 4 \):
\[ y = 2 - 4 = -2 \]
So the other solution is \( (4, -2) \).
In conclusion, the solution set for the system of equations is:
\[ (0, 2) \quad \text{and} \quad (4, -2) \]
