Final answer:

The register content 0x02849025 represents the assembly instruction ADDIU, while 0x2167fff6 represents the assembly instruction LUI.

Step-by-step explanation:

An instruction in assembly language a statement that becomes executable when a program is assembled. Instructions are translated by the assembler into machine language bytes, which are loaded. and executed by the CPU at runtime. An instruction contains four basic parts: •Label (optional)

1) The first register content 0x02849025 represents the assembly instruction ADDIU, which adds an immediate value to a register.

The destination register is $t0 and the immediate value is 4,716,069. This instruction would be written as "ADDIU $t0, $0, 4,716,069".

2) The second register content 0x2167fff6 represents the assembly instruction LUI, which loads a 16-bit immediate value into the upper 16 bits of a register.

The destination register is $a2 and the immediate value is -9,038,342. This instruction would be written as "LUI $a2, -9,038,342".
