To show physically a factorization of a quadratic I would use algebra tiles. First the upper left would be the number of squares I had put in a rectangular array.

The lower left would be the number (constant) I had in a rectangular array. The deminsions of the squares would be my variable and the deminsions of the small square would be my constants.

How can you determine if a function is a quadratic function from its equation?

If the highest exponent of independent variable(say x) is 2 and the highest exponent of dependent variable(say y) is 1 and x and y are not multiplied, then the function is quadratic. For example: 3x-y+x2= 2y-5x+7 represents a quadratic function but y= xy+x2+5 doesn't represent a quadratic function.

Which kind of polynomial is this 3x3 plus x plus 1?

I really want to see x^3 to represent x to the power of 3 and x3 to represent the third element of the sequence (xn). Because in Calculus, we use x3, a5, etc. all the time. Anyway 3x^3 + x + 1 is a degree 3 (highest degree in the poly.) polynomial.
