(a^2+2a+ 1)+(b^2-4b+4)=0
(a+ 1)^2+(b-2)^2=0
Square is greater than or equal to 0, and sum is equal to 0. If one is greater than 0 and the other is less than 0, it is not valid.
So both are equal to 0.
So a+ 1 = 0 and b-2 = 0.
a=- 1,b=2
b^a=2^(- 1)= 1/2
2.( 16x^2y^5-2xy^3+ 1/4xy)/(- 1/4xy)
=-4xy*( 16x^2y^5-2xy^3+ 1/4xy)
=-64x^3y^6+8x^2y^4- 1
3. Fill in the blank: _ 12x 4- 16x 3+8x 2 _ _ divided by (-4x 2) =-3x 2+4x-2.
4. Let these three numbers be n- 1, n, n+ 1.
Then (n-1) 3+n 3+(n+1) 3.
=n^3-3n^2+3n- 1+n^3+n^3+3n^2+3n+ 1
=3n^3+6n
=3n(n^2+2)
N is the middle
So it can be divisible by three times the middle integer.
5.(4a^2-6ab+9b^2)*(-0.5a)
=4a^2*(-0.5a)-6ab *(0.5a)+9b^2*(-0.5a)
=-2a^3+3a^2b-4.5ab^2
