Full solution

Q. Factor.\newlinez2+14z+13z^{2}+14z+13\newline\square
  1. Identify aa, bb, cc: Step 11: Identify aa, bb, and cc in the quadratic expression z2+14z+13z^2 + 14z + 13. Here, a=1a = 1, b=14b = 14, and c=13c = 13.
  2. Find two numbers: Step 22: Find two numbers that multiply to acac (1×13=131\times13 = 13) and add up to bb (1414).\newlineThe numbers 11 and 1313 work since 1×13=131\times13 = 13 and 1+13=141+13 = 14.
  3. Factorize the expression: Step 33: Use the numbers found to factorize the quadratic expression.\newlineThe expression can be written as z + \(1)(z + 1313)\.
