Answer:

answer C (y-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial (y - 2) is a factor of [tex]y^2-10y+16[/tex]

LEts factor [tex]y^2-10y+16[/tex] to find out other factor

Product is 16 and sum is -10

LEts find out two factors whose product is 16 and add upto -10

y-2 is a factor given already

so -2 is one of the factor

[tex]-2 * -8 = 16[/tex]

[tex]-2+(-8)=-10[/tex]

So factors are -2 and -8

[tex]y^2-10y+16[/tex]

[tex](y-2)(y-8)[/tex]

Hence other factor is (y-8)
