Factoring quadratics (scientific method)

Factoring a quadratic equation means decomposing a polynomial into the product of its binomials. We did invent an algorithm to find any possible factoring. Three important steps are combined to find a solution:

1. Equating coefficients to create a system of linear equations
2. Solve that system of linear equations
3. Use the pq formula to get the final variable

There are infinite possibilities so that a limitation had to be built in. B is always a natural number.
