\(=\lim\limits_{x\rightarrow-1}\dfrac{\dfrac{x+2017-\left(2015-x\right)}{\sqrt[3]{\left(x+2017\right)^2}+\sqrt[3]{\left(x+2017\right)\left(2015-x\right)}+\sqrt[3]{\left(2015-x\right)^2}}}{\dfrac{2000+x-\left(1998-x\right)}{\sqrt{2000+x}+\sqrt{1998-x}}}\)
\(=\lim\limits_{x\rightarrow-1}\dfrac{\sqrt{2000+x}+\sqrt{1998-x}}{\sqrt[3]{\left(x+2017\right)^2}+\sqrt[3]{\left(x+2017\right)\left(2015-x\right)}+\sqrt[3]{\left(2015-x\right)^2}}\)
\(=\dfrac{\sqrt{1999}+\sqrt{1999}}{\sqrt[3]{2016^2}+\sqrt[3]{2016^2}+\sqrt[3]{2016^2}}=\dfrac{2\sqrt{1999}}{3.24\sqrt[3]{294}}=\dfrac{\sqrt{1999}}{36\sqrt[3]{294}}\)
\(\Rightarrow a+b=1999+294\)
