Igive you 98 points the distributive property to find the product (y−4x)(y2+4y+16) results in a polynomial of the form y3+4y2+ay−4xy2−axy−64x. what is the value of a in the polynomial?
4
8
16
32

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

y(y² + 4y + 16) - 4x(y² + 4y + 16) ← distribute both parenthesis

= y³ + 4y² + 16y - 4xy² - 16xy - 64x

Compare - axy to - 16xy ⇒ a = 16

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
