Question

Use the table to find the product of the two polynomials. Write your answers in descending orde.

Answer 1

Given:

Given the polynomial

$(4x^2-4x)(x^2-4)$

Required: The product of the polynomials

Explanation:

Fill the table by taking the product of the values written in the left and up of each column.

The product of the polynomials is the sum of each entry in the column. Thus,

$(4x^2-4x)(x^2-4)=4x^4-4x^3-16x^2+16x$

Final Answer:

$(4x^2-4x)(x^2-4)=4x^4-4x^3-16x^2+16x$
