Using the distributive property to find the product (y — 4)(y2 + 4y + 16) results in a polynomial of the form y3 + 4y2 + ay – 4y2 – ay – 64. What is the value of a in the polynomial?

If you would like to find the value of a in the polynomial, you can do this using the following steps:

(y - 4)(y^2 + 4y + 16) = y^3 + 4y^2 + 16y - 4y^2 - 16y - 64 = y^3 + 4y^2 + ay - 4y^2 - ay - 64

a = 16

The correct result would be 16.

Answer: 16
