question 193

Multiple Choice

Add the proper constant to the binomial so that the resulting trinomial is a perfect square trinomial. Then factor the
trinomial.
- $$y ^ { 2 } - 10 y$$

• A) \(y ^ { 2 } - 10 y + 25 = ( y - 5 ) ^ { 2 }\)
• B) \(y ^ { 2 } - 10 y - 100 = ( y - 10 ) ^ { 2 }\)
• C) \(y ^ { 2 } - 10 y - 25 = ( y - 5 ) ^ { 2 }\)
• D) \(y ^ { 2 } - 10 y + 100 = ( y - 10 ) ^ { 2 }\)
