Huh... I never did figure out what to do with the factors. I thought those were coordinates and tried various origin points but nothing made sense. I was way off!

Well, guess who you do not want factoring anything for you - ME!!! I had this completely wrong, from the equations to where to go once I go the numbers. I am going to chalk this up to having done this type of math perhaps 50 years ago or more.
Good puzzle, bad solver.

NUDGES!I am always willing to give nudges where needed; metas should be about fun, not frustration. Send me what you have done so far because often you are closer than you think!

My last quadratic was roughly 40 years ago so I will be warming the bench with Dr. Tom. There will be joking, beer, and peanuts. And maybe a few wisecracks about math nerds.
