Question

the binomial (y − 2) is a factor of y2 − 10y 16. what is the other factor? (y − 5) (y 5) (y − 8) (y 8)

Answer 1

c) y-8

Explanation:

Answer 2

The binomial factors of the quadratic trinomial may take the forms of (y + a) and (y + b). The sum of a and b is equal to the numerical coefficient of the second term and their product should be equal to the constant. If a is equal to -2, b is equal to -8. Thus, the second factor is (y - 8).
