A. -1

B. 1

C. 0

D. 2

Answer: Option A

Solution(By Examveda Team)

$$\eqalign{ & {x^2} + {y^2} + 2x + 1 = 0 \cr & \Rightarrow {\left( {x + 1} \right)^2} + {y^2} = 0 \cr & {\text{Let }}{\left( {x + 1} \right)^2} = 0 \cr & {y^2} = 0 \cr & x = - 1,y = 0 \cr & {\text{Now, }}{x^{31}} + {y^{35}} \cr & = {\left( { - 1} \right)^{31}} + {\left( 0 \right)^{35}} \cr & = - 1 \cr} $$
