using the distributive property to find the product (y-4)(y^2+4y+16) results in a polynomial of the form y^3 + 4y^2 + ay - 4y^2 - ay - 64 what is the value of a in the polynomial

Respuesta :

(y-4)(y^2+4y+16)
y^3+4y^2+16y-4y^2-16y-64=y^3+4y^2+ay-4y^2-ay-64
Comparing the coefficients: a=16
Answer: The value of a in the polynomial is 16

Answer:d
