Answer:

Option B, Spencer did not factor the polynomial completely; 16x^2−1 can be factored over the integers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Factor

256x^4y^2−y^2

y^2(256x^4 - 1)

y^2(16x^2 - 1)(16x^2 + 1)

y^2(4x + 1)(4x - 1)(16x^2 + 1)

Answer: Option B, Spencer did not factor the polynomial completely; 16x^2−1 can be factored over the integers.

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Not independent

Explanation:

Two events are not independent/dependent if the result of one event affects the outcome of the other. In the case above, numbers are picked without replacement, therefore if one slip is picked then the other slip will be picked(slips are picked only once not twice or more as in independent events). Events would be independent if there was a replacement.
