ANSWER

A. y√y

Step-by-step explanation

The given expression is:


\sqrt{ {y}^(3) } + \sqrt{16 {y}^(3) } - 4y √(y)

We factor the perfect square in the first two terms to obtain;


\sqrt{ {y}^(2) * y} + \sqrt{ {(4y)}^(2) * y } - 4y √(y)

This simplifies to:


y√(y ) + 4y √(y ) - 4y √(y)

We simplify to get;


y√(y ) + 0 = y √(y)

The correct choice is A.
