The binomial (y - 2) is a factor of y2 - 10y 16. what is the other factor? (y - 5) (y 5) (y - 8) (y 8)

The binomial factors of the quadratic trinomial may take the forms of (y + a) and (y + b). The sum of a and b is equal to the numerical coefficient of the second term and their product should be equal to the constant. If a is equal to - 2, b is equal to - 8. Thus, the second factor is (y - 8).
