Are the following irreducible over Q?
a) $ x^5 + 9x^4 + 12x^2 + 6 $ b) $ x^4 + x + 1 $ c) $ x^4 + 3x^2 + 3 $ d) $ x^5 + 5x^2 + 1 $ e) $ (5/2)x^5 + (9/2)x^4 + 15x^3 + (3/7)x^2 + 6x + (3/14) $
a.) Look at Eisenstein's with p = 3. b.) A polynomial is irreducible in Q if there's a p such that f(x) mod p is irreducible. Look at p = 2. c.) See part a. d.) See part b. e.) Multiply by 14 then see part a. --Jniederh 22:12, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
