Answer:

\left(y-8\right)

Step-by-step explanation:

y^2-10y+16

=\left(y^2-2y\right)+\left(-8y+16\right)

y^2-2y

=yy-2y

=y\left(y-2\right)

-8y+16

=-8y+8\cdot \:2

=-8\left(y-2\right)

=y\left(y-2\right)-8\left(y-2\right)

=\left(y-2\right)\left(y-8\right)

The other factor is:

\left(y-8\right)

Incase it helps to have a slightly different approach, the way we learnt it is:

y2 - 10y + 16 = 0

When these are factorised, the brackets you have will need to expand to equal the above.

You need to find 2 numbers that multiply together to make the end number, c, and those 2 numbers must also add together to made the middle number, b.

So for this case, those two numbers would be -2 and -8.

Then these go into the brackets,
(y - 2) (y - 8) = 0

This can then be proven to be correct via expansion,

y x y = y2
y x -8 = -8y
-2 x y = -2y
-2 x -8 = 16

(y2) + (-8y) + (-2y) + (16) = 0

y2 - 8y - 2y + 16 = 0

y2 - 10y + 16 = 0

Hope this helps a little?

Solve the following system by graphing x + y - 6= 0 x- y = 0
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

(3,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y - 6= 0

x- y = 0

Add the two equations together

x + y - 6= 0

x- y = 0

-------------------

2x - 6 = 0

Add 6 to each side

2x-6+6 = 0

2x = 6

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 6/2

x = 3

Now find y

x-y = 0

3 - y = 0

y = 3
