Finding a congruence chain (linear and quadratic) equivalent to a polynomial












0












$begingroup$


I want to find a congruence chain (linear and quadratic) equivalent to $2x^2+3x-k equiv 0 (mod5)$, with $k in mathbb{Z}$. I've started with considering the polynomial for $x=1,2,3,4$ but I don't know how one can find a congruence chain.



Can someone explain me what it means?



Thanks

    What is a congruence chain? I don't recall hearing of such a thing. Ok, I do call things like $$3^{13}equiv3^{2cdot6+1}equiv(3^6)^2cdot3^1equiv1^2cdot3equiv3pmod7$$ congruence chains (here modulo $7$), but that does not make sense here.
