The polynomial is .
The general quadratic expression form is .
In the above trinomial, .Since
is positive and
is negative, so m and p are both negative.You need to find two negative factors with a sum of
and a product of
.
Make a list of the factors of 45 and look for the of factors with the sum of .
There is no factors with a sum of .So, the quadratic expression cannot be factored using integers.Therefore, is
prime.
The polynomial, is prime.
