9/16

===========

Perform the operations in the correct order.

First, we evaluate the exponents:

  • (1/2)³ = 1/8 and
  • (1/4)² = 1/16

Then, we subtract the second term from the first:

  • 1/8 - 1/16 = 2/16 - 1/16 = 1/16

Finally, we add the third term:

  • 1/16 + 1/2 = 1/16 + 8/16 = 9/16

Therefore, the value of the expression is 9/16.
