4 is wrong because a number gets smaller, not larger when you take 2.6 from it. 3-2.6 is 0.4

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rationalize the denominator of b. So, multiply the numerator and denominator by $\sqrt{x}$

$b = \frac{(1-2\sqrt{x}) *\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x}*\sqrt{x} }=\frac{1*\sqrt{x} -2\sqrt{x} *\sqrt{x} }{\sqrt{x} *\sqrt{x} }\\\\=\frac{\sqrt{x} -2x}{x}\\$

Now, find a +b

$a +b = \frac{2x+\sqrt{x} }{x}+\frac{\sqrt{x} -2x}{x}\\\\=\frac{2x+\sqrt{x} +\sqrt{x} -2x}{x}$

Combine like terms

$= \frac{2x-2x+\sqrt{x} +\sqrt{x} }{x}\\\\=\frac{2\sqrt{x} }{x}$

Now find (a + b)²

(a +b)² = $(\frac{2\sqrt{x} }{x})^{2}$

$= \frac{2^{2}*(\sqrt{x} )^{2}}{x^{2}}\\\\= \frac{4* x}{x^{2}}\\\\= \frac{4}{x}$

Hint: $\sqrt{x} *\sqrt{x} =\sqrt{x*x}=x$
