Answer:


(1)/(4)

Explanation:

Originally our equation looks like
x^(2) + 2y

First, we want to substitute x =
(1)/(2) & y= 0 into the equation.

The equation now looks like
(
(1)/(2)
)^(2) + 2 x 0

The brackets are added to the fraction as we are squaring the WHOLE fraction, and the 2y has a hidden multiplication sign, with it being 2 x y, so it is 2 x 0.

Now that we have our values substituted into the equation, we can solve it!


(
(1)/(2)
)^(2) =
(1)/(4)

therefore,


(1)/(4) + 2 x 0

=
(1)/(4)
