this quest has been posted for hundreds of times.
We must have 2^((x+y)^2)/2^((x-y)^2) = 2^(4xy)=16

Thanks for the reply..

but the Question in the Practice test doesn't say, 2^((x+y)^2)/2^(x-y)^2
It says, 2(x+y)^2/2(x-y)^2. Thats what got me stumped.

Is it a misprint on the Test itself? Is it possible?

I lost quite some time on this one.. as I thought I was missing something very simple on it.
