Question

The binomial (y - 2) is a factor of y^2-10y+16. What is the other factor?

Answer 1

The answer is c I hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer:

answer C (y-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial (y - 2) is a factor of $y^2-10y+16$

LEts factor $y^2-10y+16$ to find out other factor

Product is 16 and sum is -10

LEts find out two factors whose product is 16 and add upto -10

y-2 is a factor given already

so -2 is one of the factor

$-2 * -8 = 16$

$-2+(-8)=-10$

So factors are -2 and -8

$y^2-10y+16$

$(y-2)(y-8)$

Hence other factor is (y-8)
