Answer

$\{(1,2),(1,-2),(-1,2),(-1,-2)\}$

Work Step by Step

1. Multiply 4 to the first equation to get $8x^2+4y^2=24$ 2. Add the result to the second equation and get $9x^2=9$, thus $x=\pm1$ 3. For $x=1$, we have $y^2=6-2x^2=4$, thus $y=\pm2$ 4. For $x=-1$, we have $y^2=6-2x^2=4$, thus $y=\pm2$ 5. Thus the solution set is $\{(1,2),(1,-2),(-1,2),(-1,-2)\}$
