The question wants us to solve for 2^s/2^t = 2^(s - t) => If we can calculate s - t, we will get the answer. First, let's simply the question stem: s = (x + y)^2 = x^2 + y^2 + 2xy t = (x - y)^2 = x^2 + y^2 - 2xy => s - t = ( x^2 + y^2 + 2xy ) - ( x^2 + y^2 - 2xy ) = 4xy Considering Statement (1) alo...
