Answer:

The answer to your question is a = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Polynomial

                  (y - 4) (y² + 4y + 16)

Process

1.- Multiply y by each term of the polynomial

                y(y² + 4y + 16) = y³ + 4y² + 16y

2.- Multiply -4 by each term of the polynomial

                -4(y² + 4y + 16) = -4y² - 16y - 64

3.- Write both results

                y³ + 4y² + 16y - 4y² - 16y - 64

In bold we notice that a = 16
