$\"16z%5E5%2B12z%5E4-10z%5E3\"$
\n" ); document.write( "you start by factoring out a common term to all which winds up being $\"z%5E3\"$
\n" ); document.write( "the formula becomes $\"%28z%5E3%29%2A%2816z%5E2%2B12z-10%29\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( " $\"16z%5E2%2B12z-10\"$ is a quadratic equation that can be factored by sight (with a little fiddling around cause it wasn't that easy) so the completed factorization becomes $\"%28z%5E3%29%2A%282z-1%29%2A%288z%2B10%29\"$ .
