Answer

(a)$f(0,0) = 0$ (b)$f(-1,1) = 0$ (c) $f(2,3) = 58$ (d) $f(-3,-2) = 33$

Work Step by Step

- Substitute the values of "x" and "y" by the given ones in each point: $f(x,y) = x^2 + xy^3$ (a) $f(0,0)$ $f(0,0) = 0^2 + 0*0^3 = 0$ (b) $f(-1,1)$ $f(-1,1) = (-1)^2 + (-1)(1)^3 = 1 + (-1)*(1) = 1 -1 = 0$ (c) $f(2,3)$ $f(2,3) = (2)^2 + (2)(3)^3 = 4 + (2)(27) = 4 + 54 = 58$ (d) $f(-3,-2)$ $f(-3,-2) = (-3)^2 + (-3)(-2)^3 = 9 + (-3)(-8) = 9 + 24 = 33$
