a: \(M=\left(\dfrac{x\left(x-2\right)}{2\left(x^2+4\right)}+\dfrac{2x^2}{x^3-2x^2+4x-8}\right)\cdot\dfrac{x^2-x-2}{x^2}\)
\(=\left(\dfrac{x\left(x-2\right)}{2\left(x^2+4\right)}+\dfrac{2x^2}{\left(x^2+4\right)\left(x-2\right)}\right)\cdot\dfrac{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+1\right)}{x^2}\)
\(=\left(\dfrac{x\left(x-2\right)^2+4x^2}{2\left(x^2+4\right)\left(x-2\right)}\right)\cdot\dfrac{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+1\right)}{x^2}\)
\(=\dfrac{x^3-4x^2+4x+4x^2}{2\left(x^2+4\right)}\cdot\dfrac{x+1}{x^2}\)
\(=\dfrac{x\left(x^2+4\right)}{2\left(x^2+4\right)}\cdot\dfrac{x+1}{x^2}=\dfrac{x+1}{2x}\)
b: Thay x=1/2 vào M, ta được:
\(M=\left(\dfrac{1}{2}+1\right):\left(2\cdot\dfrac{1}{2}\right)=\dfrac{3}{2}\)
