The Students' Conjectures Emily and Zach have two different polynomials to multiply:
Polynomial product A:
(4x2 - 4x)(x2 - 4)
Polynomial product B:
(x2 + + x - 2)(4x2 - 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.
