Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Identify how to match the quadratic expression with the binomial square.
  • Step 2: Compare coefficients for alignment and solve for the unknowns.
  • Step 3: Verify by reconstructing the square from known coefficients.

Now, let's work through each step:

Step 1: The given expression is (?×x+?)2=16x2+32x+16(?\times x+?)^2 = 16x^2 + 32x + 16. The goal is to match this with (ax+b)2=a2x2+2abx+b2(ax + b)^2 = a^2x^2 + 2abx + b^2.

Step 2: Compare the expanded form with the expanded square:

  • Match a2x2a^2x^2 with 16x216x^2: a2=16a^2 = 16. Solving gives a=4a = 4.
  • Match 2abx2abx with 32x32x: 2ab=322ab = 32. Substituting a=4a = 4, we get 2×4×b=322 \times 4 \times b = 32 b=4\Rightarrow b = 4.
  • Match b2b^2 with 1616: b2=16b^2 = 16. We already confirmed b=4b = 4.

Step 3: Since both aa and bb values match consistently through all comparisons, reconstruct the expression:

(4x+4)2=(4)2x2+2(4)(4)x+(4)2=16x2+32x+16(4x + 4)^2 = (4)^2x^2 + 2(4)(4)x + (4)^2 = 16x^2 + 32x + 16.

This confirms the correct filling of blanks with consistent polynomial expression alignment.

Therefore, the filled-in expression is (4×x+4)2(4 \times x + 4)^2, matching with the correct choice.

Therefore, the correct solution is (4,4)(4, 4).
