Part A)

This quadratic expression can be factored by using the difference of squares pattern.

Part B) (5x+y) and (5x-y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

25x^2-y^2

above polynomial can be factorize by using difference of squares formula

a2-b2 = (a+b) (a-b)

25x^2-y^2 = (5x-y) (5x+y)

so for part A)

correct option is This quadratic expression can be factored by using the difference of squares pattern.

Part B)

As factored above in part A,

the factors of given polynomial 25x^2-y^2 are (5x+y) (5x-y)

so for part B) correct options are (5x+y) and (5x-y) !
