7

Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Simplify the numerator.

    Combine the like terms in the numerator:

    2x2y2+5x2y2=(2+5)x2y2=7x2y22x^2y^2 + 5x^2y^2 = (2+5)x^2y^2 = 7x^2y^2
  2. Simplify the denominator.

    Distribute the negative sign inside the parentheses:

    1−(1−x2y2)=1−1+x2y21-(1-x^2y^2) = 1 - 1 + x^2y^2 =x2y2= x^2y^2
  3. Divide the simplified numerator by the simplified denominator.

    7x2y2x2y2\frac{7x^2y^2}{x^2y^2}

    Assuming x≠0x \neq 0 and y≠0y \neq 0, the x2y2x^2y^2 terms cancel out:

    =7= 7

    The simplified expression is 7.
