Emily and Zach have two different polynomials to multiply:
Polynomial product A:
(4x2 β 4x)(x2 β 4) Polynomial product B:
(x2 + x β 2)(4x2 β 8x)
They are trying to determine if the products of the two polynomials are the same. But they disagree about how to solve this problem.

B) (x2 + x β 2)(4x2 β 8x)
3. Are the two products the same when you multiply them with the table method? (1 point)
Multiplying Using the Distributive Property:
4. Multiply the two polynomials using the distributive property. (4 points: 2 points for each product)
A) (4x2 β 4x)(x2 β 4)
B) (x2 + x β 2)(4x2 β 8x)
5. Are the two products the same when you multiply them horizontally? (1 point)
Multiplying Vertically:
