question 114

Multiple Choice

Factor completely using the trial and error method to factor trinomials. If unfactorable, indicate that the polynomial is
prime.

• A) \(y ^ { 4 } ( 5 x + 4 y ) \left( 5 x ^ { 2 } + 2 x y \right)\)
• B) \(x \left( 5 x y ^ { 4 } + 4 y ^ { 5 } \right) ( 5 x + 2 y )\)
• C) \(x y ^ { 4 } ( 5 x + 4 y ) ( 5 x + 2 y )\)
• D) prime
