D. P + Q

Explanation:

Given:

P = 8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y

Q = (5y² - 4y)(3y² + 7)

Required:

Determine which operation will give an expression equivalent to 23y⁴ - 6y³ + 35y² - 20y.

SOLUTION:

Perform each operation given to see which of them gives an expression equivalent to 23y⁴ - 6y³ + 35y² - 20y.

Q - P:

P = 8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y

Q = (5y² - 4y)(3y² + 7)

Q - P = (5y² - 4y)(3y² + 7) - (8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y)

(5y²(3y² + 7) -4y(3y² + 7)) - (8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y)

(15y⁴ + 35y² - 12y³ - 28y) - (8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y)

Open parentheses

15y⁴ + 35y² - 12y³ - 28y - 8y⁴ - 6y³ - 8y

Collect like terms

15y⁴ - 8y⁴ - 12y³ - 6y³ + 35y² - 28y - 8y

7y⁴ - 18y³ + 35y² - 36y

Therefore, P - Q does not give us an expression equivalent to 23y⁴ - 6y³ + 35y² - 20y.

PQ:

P = 8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y

Q = (5y² - 4y)(3y² + 7) = (15y⁴ + 35y² - 12y³ - 28y)

PQ = (8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y)(15y⁴ + 35y² - 12y³ - 28y)

=(8y⁴(15y⁴ + 35y² - 12y³ - 28y) +6y³(8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y)(15y⁴ + 35y² - 12y³ - 28y) +8y(8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y)(15y⁴ + 35y² - 12y³ - 28y))

= 120y⁸ . . . . .

Note: You don't need to perform this operation further anymore. It would definitely not give us the equivalent expression we are looking for. The degree of the leading term (120y⁸) is way too greater than the degree of the leading term (23y⁴) of the equivalent expression we are looking for.

Thus, PQ cannot give us an expression equivalent to 23y⁴ - 6y³ + 35y² - 20y.

P - Q:

P = 8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y

Q = (5y² - 4y)(3y² + 7) = (15y⁴ + 35y² - 12y³ - 28y)

P - Q = (8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y) - (15y⁴ + 35y² - 12y³ - 28y)

Open parentheses

8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y - 15y⁴ - 35y² + 12y³ + 28y

Collect like terms

8y⁴ - 15y⁴ + 6y³ + 12y³ - 35y² + 8y + 28y

-7y⁴ + 18y³ - 35y² + 36y

Therefore, P - Q cannot give us an expression equivalent to 23y⁴ - 6y³ + 35y² - 20y.

P + Q:

P = 8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y

Q = (5y² - 4y)(3y² + 7) = (15y⁴ + 35y² - 12y³ - 28y)

P + Q = (8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y) + (15y⁴ + 35y² - 12y³ - 28y)

Open parentheses

8y⁴ + 6y³ + 8y + 15y⁴ + 35y² - 12y³ - 28y

Collect like terms

8y⁴ + 15y⁴ + 6y³ - 12y³ + 35y² + 8y - 28y

23y³ - 6y³ + 35y² - 20y

Therefore, P + Q will result in an expression equivalent to 23y⁴ - 6y³ + 35y² - 20y.

The answer is D.
