Solution

The correct option is D

-3


(xy+yz)2 is in the form of (a+b)2 where a=xy and b=yz.
Using (a+b)2=a2+b2+2ab,
(xy+yz)2=x2y2+y2z2+2xzy2.

Therefore,
(xy+yz)22x2y2z=x2y2+y2z2+2xzy22x2y2z

Substituting the values of x,y and z in the above expression, we get
x2y2+y2z2+2xzy22x2y2z
(1)2(1)2+(1)2(2)2+2(1)(2)(1)22(1)2(1)2(2)
1 + 4 - 4 - 4 = -3
