Use the remainder theorem and the factor theorem to determine whether (y − 3) is a factor of (y4 + 2y2 − 4). A. The remainder is 0 and, therefore, (y − 3) isn't a factor of (y4 + 2y2 − 4). B. The remainder is 0 and, therefore, (y − 3) is a factor of (y4 + 2y2 − 4). C. The remainder isn't 0 and, therefore, (y − 3) isn't a factor of (y4 + 2y2 − 4). D. The remainder isn't 0 and, therefore, (y − 3) is a factor of (y4 + 2y2 − 4).
