We know that Elijah can read 75 words per minute. To find how many words he can write per second we do:
75/60= 1.25 (We divide by 60 because there is 60 seconds in a minute)
Elijah's word per second is 1.25 words/second

Answer:

$(2,2)~ \text{and}~ (-2,-2)$

Step by step explanation:

$x^2 +y^2 =8~~~~~~...(i)\\\\x-y=0~~~~~~~~~...(ii)\\\\\text{From (ii):}\\\\x-y = 0 \implies x = y\\\\\text{Substitute x = y in eq (i):}\\\\~~~~~~y^2 +y^2 =8\\\\\implies 2y^2 = 8\\ \\\implies y^2 = \dfrac 82\\\\\implies y^2 = 4\\\\\implies y = \pm\sqrt 4\\\\\implies y = \pm 2\\\\\text{Substitute y = x in equation (i):}\\ \\~~~~~~x^2 +x^2 = 8\\ \\\implies 2x^2 = 8\\\\\implies x^2 = \dfrac 82\\\\\implies x^2 = 4\\\\\implies x = \pm\sqrt 4\\\\\implies x = \pm2\\\\$
