Which polynomials are prime? check all that apply. 15x2 10x – 9x 7 20x2 – 12x 30x – 18 6x3 14x2 – 12x – 28 8x3 20x2 3x 12 11x4 4x2 – 6x2 – 16

Respuesta :

The options that are prime polynomials are,

15x^2  +10x -9x+7, 8x^3+20x^2+3x+12 and 11x^4+4x^2-6x^2-16

What is the prime polynomial?

A polynomial with integer coefficients that cannot be factored into polynomials of lower degree, also with integer coefficients, is called an irreducible or prime polynomial.

To determine all options in order to check that the polynomials are prime or not:

1). 15x^2  +10x -9x+7

5x(3x + 2) - (9x - 7)

Therefore,  this polynomial can not be factored into lower degree polynomial. Therefore, it is a prime polynomial.

2). 20x^2-12x+30x-18

4x(5x - 3)+6(5x-3)

(4x + 6)(5x - 3)

Therefore,  this polynomial is converted into a lower degree polynomial. Therefore, it is not a prime polynomial.

3). 6x^3+14x^2-12x-28

2x^2(3x+7)-4(3x+7)

(2x^2-4)(3x+7)

Therefore,  this polynomial is converted into a lower degree polynomial. Therefore, it is not a prime polynomial.

4). 8x^3+20x^2+3x+12

4x^2(2x+5)+(3x+20)

Therefore, this polynomial can not be factored into lower degree polynomial. Therefore, it is a prime polynomial.

5). 11x^4+4x^2-6x^2-16

x^2(11x^2+4)-2(3x^2+8)

So, this polynomial can not be factored into lower degree polynomial. Therefore, it is a prime polynomial.
