ax2 + bx + c is the polynomial you use in this case, much like an equation. you would use the composite number method in this case. A composite number is a number that can be written as the product of two positive integers other than 1 and the number itself. For example: 14 is a composite number because it can be written as 7 times 2. In this case, 7 and 2 are called factors of 14.
