State whether each expression is a difference of two squares. If it is, factor the binomials completely. If not write BLUFF.
1. y^2-4
2. 9a^2-49
3. 4a^2b^2-64
4. 16y^3-25
5. b^2-1
6. c^2+16
7. (p+q)^2-81
8. a^2-(c-d)^2
9. m^2n^2-9x^4
10. x^2y^8-36z^10
B. Show the factor forms of the given binomials.
1. y^3+8
2. 27x^3-125
3. c^3-8d^3
4. a^3+(b+c)^3
