Factor the given polynomial completely \. If the polynomial cannot be factored, say that is prime. y^4+10y^3+16y^2 A. y^4+10y^3+16y^2=
B. The polynomial is prime

I took out the greatest common factor, which is y^2 and factored from there
You’ll end up with y^2(y+2)(y+8)
Here’s my work :)

It would be the second one because it passes the vertical line test

Best answer that i found on yahoo ok   set :   x= length of 2nd piece in cm  x- 3= length of 1st piece in cm  x-4= length of 3rd piece in cm  then since you know they all came from the 20 cm ribbon you add them together and set them equal to 20x+ x-3 +x-4 = 20  3x - 7= 20  3x= 27  x= 9  the shortest piece is the third piece which is x- 4  x-4  9-4 = 5  the length of the smallest piece is 5 cm.  the other lengths are  9 cm  6 cm
